	I recommend many of the utilities in the book (especially INSTALL
and REMOVE) but I do not recommend IBMFIX.  The description of the program
is that it swaps the LEFT-Control and CAPSLOCK keys, but it switches BOTH
control keys with the capslock.  So, if you don't want TWO CapsLock keys,
don't use this program.  Further, it uses a different sort of check for
this swap than another.  It is far easier to install ANSI.SYS or one of its
replacements and use the following sequence to swap the keys:

	<ESC>[27;"`";p<ESC>[96;27;p

	where <ESC> is character 27.  That should swap the keys physically.
The alternate method is to redefine the output character translation (this
may work only in NANSI.SYS) using this sequence:

	<ESC>[27;96y<ESC>[96;27y

Hope this helps,
just my two bytes,
