I don't know whether it supported lower case or not. I do know that all text shown on screen in the Sketchpad demo films is upper-case only. I'd have to have a careful look through the actual thesis to figure out anything more. And I won't be doing that anytime soon, because I have about two weeks to finish my PhD thesis.

Enough work-avoidance... back to the bit mines!
