Capitalize Strings in UNIX

There might be times when you need to CAPITALIZE everything. The capitalize command handles this task well. Here is an example of its use.

Capitalize entire contents of a script or plain file
# cat testme | /usr/openwin/bin/capitalize -u
#!/BIN/KSH

IF [ $# = 0 ]; THEN
ECHO ADD AN ARGUMENT LIST
EXIT
FI
...

# cat Tech@Sakana | /usr/openwin/bin/capitalize -u
YOU CAN USE CAPITALIZE COMMAND OR THE UNIX TR COMMAND, WHICH WAS SUGGESTED BY STEPHANE KATTOOR

Capitalize the output of a command
# date | /usr/openwin/bin/capitalize -u
