Ah forget it. Looks like all other applications use Shift, Alt, Ctrl too.

Not for me, I prefer Mixed Case.

(so UP, DOWN, PGUP, PGDWON, NUM and DELETE should be Up, Down, PgUp, PgDown, Num and Delete.)

But I would agree that consistency of presentation is important. Otherwise people subconsciously look for a hidden meaning in the difference.

Yeah looks like that there are other appz with different caps. VirtualDub 1.9.4 for example uses all uppercase.

All caps for me, thank you. The easier it is to read, the less time I have to spend time searching.

It works in the last manual I wrote, though it's all caps there.

For me, this falls in to a similar category as removing redundant text from menus. We had quite a discussion on that too some time ago.

Definitely keep mixed case please ... block caps are actually harder to read. :)
