;;; Commentary:

;; This is a simple minor mode in which all letters are inserted in
;; captialized form.  It works for Latin-1 as well as ASCII.

;; Note that this mode has absolutely nothing to do with the toggle
;; state of your capslock.

;;; Code:

(defun caps-mode-self-insert-command (&optional n)
  "Like `self-insert-command', but uppercase the the typed character."
  (interactive "p")
  (insert-char (upcase last-command-char) n))

(defvar caps-mode-map
  (let ((map (make-keymap)))
    ;; Or with Emacs-CVS:
    ;; (define-key map [remap self-insert-command] 
'caps-mode-self-insert-command)
    (substitute-key-definition 'self-insert-command
                                   'caps-mode-self-insert-command
                                   map global-map)
    map))

(define-minor-mode caps-mode
  "Toggle caps mode.
With no argument, this command toggles the mode.
Non-null prefix argument turns on the mode.
Null prefix argument turns off the mode.

When caps mode is enabled, all letters are inserted in their
capitalized form."
  :init-value nil
  :lighter " Caps")
