MRT: LowercaseStrings not working for last word in file name

[diopter]

LowercaseStrings=Deutsch:der,die,das,er,sie,es,wir,ihr,ihre,ein,bei,von,für,in,an,auf,unter,und,oder,als,ob,so,also,aber,nicht
File name: "von LiesMich oder nicht er test sie es von an.txt"

MRT-Result: "Von Liesmich oder nicht er Test sie es von An.txt"
Should be:  "Von Liesmich oder nicht er Test sie es von an.txt"

Help says it is meant for "First of each word uppercase (English in Titles)".
In English titles, capitalizing the first and the last word is the rule.

History.txt

"First of each word uppercase"- added a new setting for this older option:
13.05.18 Added: wincmd.ini [Configuration]
LowercaseStrings=English:a,an,the,at,by,for,in,of,on,to,from,up,and,as,but,or,nor,yet,so,vs
set title and excepted words for "First of each word uppercase" (32/64)

"First of each word uppercase (English in Titles)" new option in MRT
13.05.18 Added: Multi-rename tool: New upper/lowercase option "First of each word uppercase (English in Titles)"
which doesn't uppercase words like "a", "an", "the" etc., except at the start or end (32/64)

Total Commander uses the English capitalization rules, as described for example in Wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Title_case

The rules of title case are not universally standardized. The standardization is only at the level of house styles and individual style guides. Most English style guides agree that the first and last words should always be capitalized, whereas articles, short prepositions, and some conjunctions should not be.

That means that if you capitalize for Dutch or German... you lowercase English terms and we are not able to define lowercase exceptions for different target languages.
@ghisler does an ini parameter allows to override lowercase exceptions ?

[ghisler(Author)]

There isn't, but I could add one. Do you only need this for the last word, or also for the first?

[diopter]

For me (German), a setting for the last word would be enough, as you probably know...
Please add it to the next beta.
Thanks.

Only the last is needed for European schemes, do not know for others...
You could probably just add a marker like ! as last char of the language name indicating that last word do not override lowercase rules:

Code: Select all

LowercaseStrings=Deutsch!:der,die,das,er,sie,es,wir,ihr,ihre,ein,bei,von,für,in,an,auf,unter,und,oder,als,ob,so,also,aber,nicht

Do you also allows multiple languages ?

That's a great idea!

No, sorry.

[ghisler(Author)]

This was changed in Beta 6, please test it!

Just use

Code: Select all

LowercaseStrings=Deutsch!:der,die,das,er,sie,es,wir,ihr,ihre,ein,bei,von,für,in,an,auf,unter,und,oder,als,ob,so,also,aber,nicht

It would be nice it it also worked when using no description -> using string 1397 from the language file instead.

So something like

Code: Select all

LowercaseStrings=!:der,die,das,er,sie,es,wir,ihr,ihre,ein,bei,von,für,in,an,auf,unter,und,oder,als,ob,so,also,aber,nicht

or

Code: Select all

LowercaseStrings=!der,die,das,er,sie,es,wir,ihr,ihre,ein,bei,von,für,in,an,auf,unter,und,oder,als,ob,so,also,aber,nicht

should also work.

Sorry, this isn't planned. Moved to "Will not be changed".
