RE: converting upper and lower-case letters to small caps

["Sacks, Avram" Avram.Sacks@xxxxxxxx]

Unfortunately, Fred.  This doesn’t work.  Entering “cc” in the command line merely changes highlighted text from upper case to lower case and lower case to upper case.

At least for this old 3+ user (who did not have the benefit of that programmer's genius), small caps depend upon the font.  If you have specified a large-and-small caps font, the change case command, CC, will do what you want.

Not seeing a reference to small caps in the XyWrite manual, I suspect that my ability to use small caps at all is a feature added to our company’s copy of XyWrite by a programmer no longer with the company. 

 

Essentially, the minus keypad key (-) is used to turn on and turn off the small cap feature.  The assignment of the small caps to the keys appears in a *.kbd file. I often need to change text from upper and lower case to all small caps and currently do so by keying in the entry. Is there a way that I could do this via a command from the command line with highlighted text without having to spend more than a couple of hours creating special program files or extensively altering existing system files?

 

I am using XyWrite III Plus, Version 3.58B
