regex in calibre editor
I am having trouble getting regex shown in other sections of mobileread to work in the editor. I doubt it is a fault of the editor, but just a flavor that doesn't match up.
I am trying to capitalize a lower case letter in the middle of a name, such as Charles r. Hansen. using (space)\U\1(space) in replace gives an error. |

\U is not supported by the regex engine the editor uses. In an upcoming release, I will be adding the ability to define actual functions as the replacement text which will allow you to do all sorts of sophisticated text processing. Uppercasing being just one of them.
