Editors' Review

This simple program can help you avoid inadvertently hitting the Caps or Num Lock keys, but doesn't offer a wide range of features. Smartcaps' tabbed interface is a bit old-fashioned but fairly easy to follow. The Keys tab lets you add a delay to the Caps or Num Lock keys and set the delay before activation with a simple slider. Among its other settings, you can opt to completely disable both keys or add the Alt key to activate the Caps lock. Though the Insert Key is displayed as well, no settings are offered in this tab to control it. The Sounds tab adds an audio notification when the locks are engaged or disengaged or at start-up to indicate whether those keys are active. The final tab, Visuals, adds a taskbar or desktop indicator to show the status of the keys. Though it doesn't offer much, anyone who is regularly annoyed by unintentionally hitting these lock keys will find Smartcaps beneficial.

Developer's Description

By Phoebus
Control the response of the Caps Lock and Num Lock keys.
sMaRTcaPs eliminates all of the annoyances with the Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Insert keys. It prevents all accidental touches of these keys yet still allows full functionality - each key must be purposely held before it will toggle. Optional sound notifications when each key toggles states, not just when the key is touched. Visual indicators and startup states as well. And it works in the background for all Windows 98 and later applications. Version 5.01b fixed defect in Windows 98 sounds.
