Re: help with a regexp

Don't use a regexp, you don't need it and it'll only make things more complicated. Just alter each character individually.

for (0, -1)
  {
    $bar = substr $foo, $_, 1;
    $foo = substr($foo, $_, 1) = uc bar;
  }

But if you really do want to use a Regex the following will work and does so for the special cases of one or two letter words. `s/\b\w\|\w\b/\U$&\E/g` [download] or if you don't want "toasted weasels" to go to "ToasteD WeaselS" but "Toasted weaselS" then: `s/\A\w\|\w\z/\U$&\E/g` [download] Dedalus.
