On reparing keycaps: take a paperclip and bend a tight hook in one end to pull
the broken part of the cap out of the switch itself... then cut up the papercli
and bend a short u-shaped piece to be used inside the broken part _and_ tha cap
as a "splint"... put the parts to gether, push in the wire, add superglue, and
wait a bit for the glue to dry before putting the fixed keycap back in the switch.
