NAME
       decasify - Convert prose strings to other cases following locale
       specific rule sets

SYNOPSIS
       decasify [-l|--locale] [-c|--case] [-s|--style] [-O|--overrides]
       [-h|--help] [INPUT]

DESCRIPTION
       Convert prose strings to other cases following locale specific rule
       sets.

       Can convert input in any supported language from any case to any other
       case.

OPTIONS
       -l, --locale <LOCALE> [default: en]
              The locale of the input text

              Used to identify what language-specific handling needs to be
              done. This can affect how individual Unicode characters are
              coveted to other cases as well as change which style guides are
              considered.

              Possible values:

                     o en

                     o tr

                     o es

       -c, --case <CASE> [default: title]
              The desired output case

              What case to convert to. Note the output *can* be affected by
              the input case, so in some cases (pun intended) you may need to
              either process twice or avoid doing so depending on the expected
              result. For example, title-casing in some English styles tries
              to preserve capitalized acronyms, but lower-casing does not.
              First converting to lower-case then to title-case would give a
              different result than directly to title-case.

              Possible values:

                     o lower

                     o sentence

                     o title

                     o upper

       -s, --style <STYLE> [default: default]
              Proffered style guide

              For languages with more than one style guide, this picks which
              set of guidelines to follow. Each language will have a default
              (typically the one we have the most robust implementation for or
              implemented first).

              Possible values:

                     o ap

                     o cmos

                     o gruber

                     o default

                     o naive

                     o tdk

                     o rae

                     o fundeu

       -O, --overrides <OVERRIDES>...
              Override words

              Override the output case of specific words regardless of what
              the casing function or style guide would normally do with them.
              The case used to specify these words is used in the output
              regardless of the target style or input case.

       -h, --help
              Print help (see a summary with '-h')

       [INPUT]
              The input string or strings (note STDIN also accepted)

              Note that all input arguments are processed together joined with
              a space, and STDIN streams are processed line by line. This can
              affect the output, for example if using sentence case the input
              should be on a single line, not broken across several.
