Description
Hello,
Notepad++ is great tool to everyone. We use it for simple tasks a lot in our company. Sometimes we have to convert “UPPERCASE” texts to “Sentence case” and Np++ is converting Turkish Special Chars as English usage. These special chars are
İ<->i I<->ı (Turkish)
İ<->İ I<->i (English)
For example --> ÇİLEK (Strawberry in Turkish) --> Çİlek (it must be Çilek)
Kına (UPPER) --> KıNA (It must be KINA)
As other languages it would be great Np++ can change Case convert function to its default language for users. For Example: If user uses Turkish languge for Np++, it should convert it as Turkish language usege.
