Hi Daya,

Sorry for the slow response - not much hacking time lately!

I see what you mean - I don't have the means to test Nepali input, but in 
English I see that  <shift> is treated by the program as an incorrectly typed 
character.  It would be very easy to have the Fish and Comet games ignore the 
shift key as its own key event, but I'm not certain if the game will then 
receive the correct unicode value for the subsequent shifted character (but I 
think it will).

Do you have things set up to build from the subversion repository?  That way 
we can easily test the changes in the code before releasing a tar.gz to the 
general public.

Also, it would be best to send issues like this to the tuxtype dev list rather 
than just to me:
