-= Neal Bridges' ShiftHack version 1.1 -= E-mail: nbridges@interlog.com Check my home page: for other PalmPilot freeware and shareware! About ShiftHack Does your Pilot capitalize letters when you don't want it to? Tired of shifting up three times to turn off auto-capitalization? Want caps-lock to stay on as long as you want it to, even during editing? ShiftHack gives control over shifting back to you. ShiftHack is a HackMaster-compatible shareware module that eliminates auto-capitalization, and maintains your chosen shift-state between applications (including the built-in apps). It's tightly-coded, efficient, and compatible with all Pilots up to and including the PalmPilot Professional. - What ShiftHack Does Under normal circumstances, the Palm OS will watch your Graffiti input, and change the shift-state to anticipate the capital at the beginning of a sentence. If you're like me, you find that this is more hindrance than help, as you frequently wish to switch it off, which takes multiple shifts. Also, if you're in caps-lock mode, auto-capitalization drops you out of it. ShiftHack eliminates this auto-capitalization, leaving you free to change the shift-state as you please. - Requirements and Installation ShiftHack occupies less than 1K of your Pilot's RAM. ShiftHack is a HackMaster module, and as such requires DaggerWare's excellent HackMaster system extender, available as shareware from . Please consult the DaggerWare's documentation as regards HackMaster's installation and operation. After HackMaster is installed on your Pilot, use your Pilot Desktop software to install shfthk11.prc, just as you would install any other Pilot program. ShiftHack can then be enabled from HackMaster's main panel. No configuration is required. - Registration ShiftHack is shareware, and can be purchased from for $5 US.
