I wonder if there is a way in Ruby how to solve the typical problem of
many publishing houses… Many editors and authors like capitalizing in
case of surnames whilst they are putting down a bibliography.

As you could notice, it includes accented chars. I would be happy if I
was able to treat these names as Abbb, (first is capitalized, the
remainder becomes small caps.
Until now I have figured this horrible thing. It is able to properly
find what I need but I have a problem with subtitution. As you can see,
the problem is when the first founded char == the second. That means if
I have MOTLIK, it works perfectly, if I had ÉPÉE, it becomes ÉpÉe. I
have no idea if I could use another RegEx or if it is solvable in the
replacing part:
par = ARGV[0]
text = open(par)
reg = text.read.force_encoding(Encoding::UTF_8)
overkill = “A-ZÁÄÉËĚÍÓÖÔÚŮÜÝČĎŇŘŠŤŽĹĽ”
reg.gsub!(/(?<=([#{overkill}]{1}))([#{overkill}]{1,15})([^.a-z\s)-]),/)
{ |s|
if $1 == $2; #???
#???
$2.downcase! + ‘,’ #???
else
#???
end
}
puts reg
text.close()
