I think, you have come up with a clever way to adapt to a broken keyboard. Almost every four years I have to get a computer for one reason or another. I can relate to your frustration.

Poor old Gershon couldnt type eye/ His laptop decided to die / It's had a good run/ But now it's no fun/ So a new one he'll have to buy/

l see that small 'L' works for caps. Now, as for sem;colons. Hmm. Oh, well. Back to apostrophes for when l want to wr'te 'eye.' Thanks!! :) gw

You know what?! After play'ng around w'th on-screen keyboards that d'dn't work r'ght and lots of other th'ngs that d'dn't pan out, Eye am k'nd of pleased w'th the result---for now. Th's 's NOT a forever solut'on! Thanks, Maureen! ~ Gershon
