Subject: bug#74155: upcasing strings doesn’t respect standard-case-table
Date: Fri, 01 Nov 2024 13:33:13 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <D5AUFJMCB3FX.70QINI98XI22@thomasvoss.com> (raw)
Hi all, quick bug report.
As of 2017 (I believe), the capital eszett (ẞ) was adopted into the
German alphabet as the uppercase variable of ß which was previously (and
which still can be) uppercased to ‘SS’. Since I prefer to use the newer
ẞ to the older SS, I have the following line in my configuration:
(set-case-syntax-pair ?ẞ ?ß (standard-case-table))
When working with characters, this behaves as intended:
(upcase ?ß)
⇒ ?ẞ
However when working with strings, it doesn’t:
(upcase "ß")
⇒ "SS"
The same goes for the ‘upcase-word’ and ‘upcase-dwim’ functions which
still upcase ß to SS. It seems that whatever code that is handling
case-conversions for multi-character inputs is not respecting the current
case table.
