No, the article I read not only told how to do the change in
software, it described how to modify the hardware on the keyboard
so that the former caps-lock key would not "stick" when pressed.

In fact, that's what made the article so intriguing.  That's 
*real* hacking.  I'm not sure how destructive the change was,
if it involved removing springs or cutting metal, etc.
