#30 Capitalisation 2. > UI to add to a customisable exception list
Having moved the capitalisation exceptions to their own .txt files we should enable the user to add their own exceptions to this list.
However, the user-defined exceptions should be kept in a separate file so they are not overwritten each time the user upgrades their version of openBMD.
- Add a UI to accept user-defined exceptions to the name and suffix lists
- Write a method that writes these to a user-customised version of the exception lists (or creates this list if its the first time the user has added any)
- Modify the read method in Capitalise 1. to combine both the standard exception list and user-defined exception lists into a single array for use in the capitalise method.

I've created blank files for user-defined additions to both the surname and suffix lists. I've also written a method which updates these user-defined lists.
The only thing remaining is to add the UI.
