Re: Capitalize first letter of sentence

Keme...

Try ellipsis with auto correct turned on it doesn't cap. the next word with
or without a space.
Doesn't seem to do anything with ordinals either
Try: etc. - no cap after that either.

I never really used autocorrect on my old machine, I kept it turned
off...seems to work better these days.
