  I agree, and it's one of the first things I plan to do if/when I get my
  AT compatible.  (It's been on order for a l-o-n-g time.)

  If anyone has s/w to do this, I'd appreciate a copy of the source.  Email
  to the address below.

  But I would suggest a slightly different (re)mapping.  Put Caps Lock up where
  Esc is ... or get rid of it altogether.  Put Control where Caps Lock is.  And
  put Esc where Control is. 

  Pity to lose the right-hand Control key.  But this is the best compromise I
  can come up with.  Any other recommendations?
