can I use caps lock as the compose key?

[ddurham]

I tried to do it in options and it didn't work. But maybe there's another way.

@ddurham what didn't work? Setting Caps Lock as the compose key, or actually using it afterwards? Both work for me:

Setting	Using

To open the debug window, right click the tray icon and select the corresponding item in the Help menu.

I will test again. Now that I did into it more, I could not set any of the keys as the compose key.
