    It was case sensitive. Corrected.

    I got the case right, because I'm used to that format with Internet email. :)

    That's just laziness to only want to type in lowercase. Yes, typing can be a pain with smart phone and tablets, but still, lazy typing is no excuse.

    Agreed.

    Yes, typing can be a pain with smart phone and tablets,

    Believe it or not but I got my very first smartphone only four months ago
    and my biggest gripe by far is the tiny keypad and its sensitivity. Even
    with the sensitivity at minimum, I'm still struggling to use it
    proficiently.

    but still, lazy typing is no excuse.

    Agreed.

    Regards,

    I do realize that not everyone has a smartphone. I allowed myself to fall into a generalization. I myself was later coming to one as compared to people around me.
    The keypad is rather a pain at times, and learning to type basically with one thumb was interesting.
    There are things such as bluetooth keyboards becoming more available. My stepdaughter gave me an "old" one that she had. I haven't played around with it yet though. It's roughly the same size as a Kindle paperwhite that I have, which might make it easier for the more typing heavy applications I use. I'll see.

    but still, lazy typing is no excuse.
    Agreed. Regards, Martin --- OpenXP 5.0.46 * Origin: Bitz-Box -
