There used to be, and may still be, a feature that beeped when the
caps lock was pressed. At least you got an early warning, that
way, if you accidentally pressed it.

Would be nice to know what that "beep" function was/is rather than
using xmodmap.
Just poking around my system, which is using the MATE desktop. If I
open the Keyboard Preferences, there's a tab for Accessibility, and
button for Audio Feedback, which offers some features even when the
other assisitive technologies stuff is off.
In there is a "Beep when a toggle key is pressed" option, triggered by
(caps lock, num lock, etc).
I suspect this is an old Gnome / MATE feature, but it might not be.
Tim:
Many thanks for the reply. Unfortunately, the opSys I am on doesn't have
the "audio feedback". And, yes, I am on MATE.
I cower owing to the anticipated reaction when I admit that I gave up on
Fedora "in its late tweens" and am now running Centos 7. But the
feedback mechanism in Centos is very poor compared to the Fedora lists
so I always hope I can learn from Fedora users to figure out Centos problems
Best,
Paul
