Perhaps this is something that is already possible and I just can't figure out, but it'd be nice if the casefix operater would realize that the last word of the title of anything needs to be uppercase.

*Addendum*

The ability to use a wildcard in the casefix would also be nice. As an example, the song

Alien Ant Farm - S.S. Recognize

There are a lot of instances where something in the form of *.*. needs all characters as capital letters to be 'correct'. Such as S.O.S.

Even better, would be the ability for it to be able to recognize strings of letters in that format, so users do not have to program in *.*. AND *.*.*. AND *.*.*.*, etc . . .

Special case casefixing for the last word is already planned for a future version.

The "S.O.S." problem does not require something like templates, it is already possible by using the special operators of the advanced casefixing mode (in this case the "Sentence terminators"). The behavior you're describing is even default for Mp3/Tag Studio (i.e. correct capitalization of "S.O.S.").

Hmm, I rechecked the options for casefixing to see if there was something I missed . . .

First of all, with casefixing on, it does not capitalize those files properly when using the default "Standard English Rules" casefixing set. Case in point: S.C.I.E.N.C.E. (an Incubus album) is consistently re-capitalized as S.c.i.e.n.c.e. Perhaps this is already changeable, but I cannot figure out how to do it useing hte methods you described. I'm not even sure what those sentence terminator cases do in the program.

Perhaps, at the very least, a casefixing strategy guide is in order?

Please add a period (".") to the list of "Sentence terminators" if it is not already there in the current state of your installation.

Regarding what the different fields of the advanced mode casefixing option does, please press F1 while having them selected, in order to access the correct section of the help file.
