The transition to mixed case was painful for everyone except Gil, who seems to 
have loved it.

I made the transition long before I encountered MVS.
From a monocase Teletype 33 to a mixed case TI.
Suddenly I saw output in mixed case.  It was a
revelation: a computer (not IBM) that understood the
style I had learned in school.  I never looked back;
I loved it!

Strange that no one mentions how they solved half a line in uppercase and 
switching to lowercase for the other half. Do people hold the shift key for 
half the line?

Some people know how to use the CAPS LOCK key, common
on most keyboards.  Look for it along the left edge.
If you become familiar with it you may find it valuable.
