== Description ==
This font switch means 'start using small caps'. The switch remains in effect until the end of the current scope. (Group? Text block? Is there a better word for this?) A scope is a block of text, usually, delimited by <code>{</code> ... <code>}</code>. This commands preserves ordinary capital letters.

== Example ==
These commands
<context source=yes text="respectively yield:">
% The \tf is to switch back to text font
Eve and \sc* Adam and Eve \tf

% Prefix notation doesn't work
Eve and \sc*{(Adam and)} Eve \tf

% Containing the \sc inside a {...} block
Eve and {(\sc* Adam and)} Eve

% Manually switching back
Eve and \sc* Adam and \tf+ Eve
</context>
