"It would be impossible," Peter might have written, "for a mere word
processing program to determine when and when not to capitalize a
letter after a quotation mark." I used the word "impossible" once in
that sentence.

The auto capitalization (apparently) cannot deal with all possible
situations. But, as Peter wrote, since you have to press Shift anyway to
insert the quotation mark, manual capitalization will be very easy in this
case.

I've noticed that in Word, if a sentence starts with a speech mark, ie
"How
are you?" Word will not capitalize the first letter of the sentence. Is
there a way to make it do so?-
