- here are 2 ideas to support alternative typing styles:
-
- 1. are there any capitalization packages? i often type in lowercase
- (for various reasons) and would like to have a function capitalize the
- beginning of sentences and known proper nouns. ideally it would
- behave like ispell.
-
- (lisp-dir-apropos said there weren't any at ohio-state.)
-
- 2. i'd like to be able to have auto-fill not fill on the first space
- that i type after a period, since when it does a do-auto-fill (or
- whatever) it fills, then starts the next line with a space. (i like
- to put 2 spaces to begin sentences.)

- i'm open to comparing research career notes with other cogsci/cogneuro people.
