\Words and uppercase letters

\Words and uppercase letters

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Dear list,

the following sample doesn’t work as expected:

   \starttext
   \Words AAAAA BBBBBBBB CCCCCCC
   \stoptext

Is there no way to get all words in lowercase characters and the initial
uppercase characters?

Many thanks for your help,


Pablo

\Words{} uppercases the first character of the words in its brackets.

What do you expect?

Many thanks for your reply, Hraban.

I expected that all other characters would be in lowercase.

\word{AAA} does this for all characters, so I thought \Words{AAAAA}
would do the same for the characters others than the first one in each word.

This is because we want \Words{} to respect some upper case, for
example, \Words{Acronyms, such as DNA, should remain capitalized}.

Many thanks for your reply, Peter.

This was exactly what I needed.

I tried \Words{\words{AAA BBB CCC}}. Since it didn’t work, I was
clueless about this.

Many thanks for the info, Alan.

Everything is clear to me now.
