Did you log in with your usename in all caps? If you do, it thinks your terminal can only display caps and converts everything to caps.
I was meaning on the console. Try logging in with shift held down on the console and you'll see that everything is in upper case.
Neat, I didn't know about that, although it explains why my console is very occasionally in all caps. If you run the `reset` command then it goes back to showing lowercase letters. Of course, if you type in the command with caps lock on, then it tries to run the non-existent command `RESET`, and you'll get an error. John
