Great Éric.
Like this:

${parameter:~pattern} Toggle case of 1st character if matching optional
pattern
${parameter:~~pattern} Toggle case of all characters regarding pattern:
cap() { local -cl _cap=("$@");echo ${_cap[*]~};}
cap great éric.
Great Éric.
myvar="ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"; echo
${myvar~~[H-p]}
ABCDEFGhijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPqrstuvwxyz
But ${var^} still doesn't know that it should apply to the first alpha
character in a string. Similar for , and ~. If the first character of
the string is a punctuation character, e.g.(, it doesn't work (as I
would like it to <g>).
