If you are okay with modifying the underlying data rather than just the way it
is displayed, it is somewhat manageable to modify Doug’s AppleScript for iTunes
(http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=titlecaps
<http://dougscripts.com/itunes/scripts/ss.php?sp=titlecaps>) to modify the
title field data in BibDesk for the selected pubs. I have done so myself to
great success but I am somewhat reluctant to share the script without Doug’s
consent as I am fairly certain that would be borderline copyright infringement.
I will ask him if he’s fine with me sharing the script.
Cheers
JJ
