 +=== Using Capitals ===
  
 +Twiddler Tuner stores all keystrokes as HID codes in the config file.  If you use a capital letter in your chord, "C" for example, Tuner will store it as HID Code 0x06 and sets the L-Shift modifier bit.  Tuner automatically removes the 
 +<LSHIFT></LSHIFT> explicit notation and replaces it with a simple capital "C" for presentation purposes.
  
 +This is important to keep in mind as some programs interpret CTRL-c and CTRL-LSHIFT-c as completely different commands.
