:::More like "l0 types of i/o" (who would ever use an "I" in place of an "l"???), and not using the shift key because in my old upright clunker from way back that lifted the whole key apparatus, which was just waaaaay too much work, and never mind my current keyboard situation, my habits are set, so there! ♦ [[User:J.
