Pages that look like raisin bread, isn't that the wonderfully appropriate
description posted some years ago by Mark Levinson? (Thanks, Mark!) Be
careful not to use too much bold. ;-)
I know, I know... With the change in interface from 3.x to 9x, Windows
lost the title case for window and dbox names. But I still use title
case for empasis there. In all other situations, I'm not a big fan of
gratuitous capitalization for emphasis; but in the case of window or
dbox titles, I think it works quite well.
