This is driving me nuts.

In LPEX, Alt + L to select a line. But, not seeing that a line was already
selected elsewhere, I have now selected a block of lines. Alt U to unselect,
then. But, fat fingers hit Alt + i. Computer processor 100%. After a cup of
tea, no change. Finish my croissant and the lines are now in minor letters.
Processor still at 100%, tea break over so ctrl alt sup etc. By the way,
source member has 15000 lines!!



Maybe you have enabled validate-as-you-type? The "hang' may be validations
being performed on your 1000's line edit rather than the upper-case change.
Even with a slowish PC that should only be a one-cup-of-tea operation.. I
have found these feature so resource-hungry that I always turn them off.
Then you can continue to edit like a mad man and use verify or the Lpex
syntax-check command to validate on-demand.
