I'm one of those old timers that just can't help using upper case for key words etc. But you know what? You made me think. With the colour syntax editors there's really no need for capitalisation. Except for insideVariableNames :-)

The bonus is that it will put of the arthritis in the fingers by a couple of years - all that straining to hold down the shift key.
Thanks
