Hi Kyle,

Yeah, I tried the capital click setting in Speech Dispatcher but
didn't like it. There are times I would want it on, such as editing
code, and others when I want it off like reading a scanned book.
Unfortunately, Speech Dispatcher doesn't give a person a quick and
easy way to turn it on/off at will. Although, it does come in handy
for editing code so the jury is still out on that feature.
