capitalizr 1.02.00

capitalizr changes the case of first letter of any word (lowercase to uppercase)

capitalizr - It’s a utility that lets you change the case (lowercase to uppercase the letter of the words) words in a file, leaving the words which have 3 or less letters. The file looks pretty if it has all words in capitalcase in it.

why not sed?

• because capitalizr is easy to use, just damn simple

• sed doesn’t takes input from stdin, it just works on piping.

Install

The one and only requirement is Python, if you are on any variant of UNIX (e.g. Linux, *BSD, Mac etc) then you have a good luck, else download it. The simplest installation (for UNIX) is download/clone the archive, extract it cd to it and run the setup:

$ pip install capitalizr

Refer to INSTALL file for more instruction related to installation.

Usages

After following the instructions in INSTALL file, you should be able to type capitalizr in terminal. Type capitalizr followed by the filename and the output will be on the screen:

$ capitalizr inputfile.txt

Pipe input to it:

$ cat inputfile.txt | capitalizr -

Input from stdin:

$ capitalizr -
the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog
^D
the Quick Brown fox Jumps Over the Lazy dog

You can write the output into file by passing -o followed by output filename, and the output will be on a file named outputfile.txt:

$ capitalizr inputfile.txt -o outputfile.txt

Override the default length of words to be escaped. The default it 3:

$ capitalizr -t 1 inputfile.txt
