Keep in mind that, unless you have a new character generator EPROM in
your Apple ][+, you won't even SEE lower case characters (unless you
are in 80 columns).  The stock ][+ charcter generator ROM didn't
contain lower case characters -- which sort of explains why DOS and
Applesoft didn't bother to look for a shift key...
