If I recall correctly keyboards in some countries have shiftlock instead of caps lock, Germany being one example.
On German PC keyboards (quite apart from the QWERTZ layout) what is usually the caps lock key changes behaviour in two ways:
- it doesn't toggle, to turn off lock you press shift (much like a mechanical typewriter)
- it acts as shift lock
So this kind of behaviour can probably be configured fairly easily, depending on your OS. Can't give you any specific help though, try a web search...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
