CLI
Usage
Usage: uncapitalize [options] [<string>]
Options:
-h, --help Print this message.
-V, --version Print the package version.
--split sep Delimiter for stdin data. Default: '/\\r?\\n/'.
Notes
If the split separator is a regular expression, ensure that the
splitoption is either properly escaped or enclosed in quotes.# Not escaped... $ echo -n $'Beep\nBoop' | uncapitalize --split /\r?\n/ # Escaped... $ echo -n $'Beep\nBoop' | uncapitalize --split /\\r?\\n/The implementation ignores trailing delimiters.
Examples
$ uncapitalize Beep
beep
To use as a standard stream,
$ echo -n 'Beep' | uncapitalize
beep
By default, when used as a standard stream, the implementation assumes newline-delimited data. To specify an alternative delimiter, set the split option.
$ echo -n 'Beep\tBOOP' | uncapitalize --split '\t'
beep
bOOP
