Enter text as usual and then call 'upcase-region' on interesting
regions; from the manual:
For example, suppose you wish to convert part of the buffer to upper
case, using the `C-x C-u' (`upcase-region') command, which operates on
the text in the region. You can first go to the beginning of the text
to be capitalized, type `C-<SPC>' to put the mark there, move to the
end, and then type `C-x C-u'. Or, you can set the mark at the end of
the text, move to the beginning, and then type `C-x C-u'.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- cut here -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Of course, you can also proceed as follows:
Set the mark `C-<SPC>', type the input text, and then type `C-x
C-u'.
This has the additional benefit that it may or may not work for
non-ASCII characters, too.
