This abomination of a keymap simulates capslock to the best +of its abilities. +This means that it keeps track of caps lock state internally rather than +sending a caps lock keypress to the OS. It is smart enough to check for +modifiers, such as Control being held down, and stop it with the hanky panky +and just send on the key event unmolested even if FakeCaps is enabled. And +since the macro isn't even registered on the non-alphas, it will not affect +them regardless.
