#347 upper, lower, title case

[Dominik Wujastyk]

As an editing feature, it would be very helpful to have the possibility of converting a selected string to uppercase, lowercase, or title-case. I.e.,
LIKE THIS,
like this,
or
Like This.

Thanks,
Dominik

You can easily create user-defined macros for this (User -> Edit Macros):

%SCRIPT
cursor.replaceSelectedText(cursor.selectedText().toUpperCase())

and similar ones. See the documentation for more on user macros.

Since this feature is not very widely used, I wouldn't make it a dedicated operation built into TXS.

Thanks! The Upper case:

%SCRIPT
cursor.replaceSelectedText(cursor.selectedText().toUpperCase())

and Lower case:

%SCRIPT
cursor.replaceSelectedText(cursor.selectedText().toLowerCase())

are easy. Can someone help with the title case?

For example

%SCRIPT
function toTitleCase(str)
{
    return str.replace(/\w\S*/g, function(txt){return txt.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + txt.substr(1).toLowerCase();});
}

cursor.replaceSelectedText(toTitleCase(cursor.selectedText()))
