    Automatic Caps Correction in Titles

    Titles with acronyms and abbreviations cannot be all caps now. They are corrected so that only the first letter is caps.

    How does one turn off that feature?

    That isn't a new setting. And it's also not quite true. The forum always prevents both titles and posts from being completely ALL CAPS, to prevent 'shouting'.

    If at least one letter in the title is non-caps, it will leave the rest of the title unedited.

    postscript - I corrected the thread title that you must be talking about.

    MacEntyre is barely trainable

    You're a pal, AS!

    I've become such a luddite... especially for a former unix guru!

    Thank you!

    A case of the "cure" being worse than the "disease."
