SPUG: regular expressions

I'd opt for 's/(\w+)/\u$1/g' if you want to leave the remaining
characters untouched, 's/(\w+)/\u\L$1/g' if you want to force all other
letters to be lowercase.

List,

I have a problem I need to modified some strings with the first
character of each word with a upper case for example:

from:

perl is number one

to

Perl Is Number One

my question is how can I do this using regular expressions?

Thanks,
Luis _____________________________________________________________
