EVE CAPITALIZE_WORD — VMS 5.5

 CAPITALIZE WORD

 Changes the case of a range, box, or single word---making the first
 character uppercase (if it is a letter) and other letters lowercase.

 Steps:

    1.  Optionally, select or find the text to change (see help on Ranges
        And Boxes), or put the cursor on the word you want to change.

    2.  Use CAPITALIZE WORD.

 Usage notes:

 o  With a range or box, CAPITALIZE WORD makes the first character of the
    range uppercase (if it is a letter) and makes any other letters of the
    first word lowercase.  For the rest of the range, it works on each word
    in the range.  If the range ends in the middle of a word, EVE extends
    the range to include all of that word.

 o  If you do not select or find text, CAPITALIZE WORD works on the current
    word.  The cursor can be anywhere on that word.  If you are between
    words, it works on the next word on the line (if any).

 o  If you used SET BOX SELECT, the case changes use the start and end of a
    found range as diagonally opposite corners of a box.

 o  If a found range is at the end of a selection, the case changes work on
    the selection, but not on the found text.
