capitalize first letter after an hyphen

[italian_guy]

Hallo. I'm trying BRU but i'm not able to solve a problem.
Let's suppose I have a directory that contains file like this

file - text text text again.

I'd like to capitalize the first letter after the hyphen to obtain

file - Text text text again.

In the field match i wrote ([a-z]*) - ([a-z]+*)
and in the field replace \1 - \2

but how can i capitalize the first letter of \2.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english.

Hy italian_guy, welcome.

That's not that easy with BRU.

I will think on an solution.
Maybe the Character Translation will help you too?

Ctr+F6
-, ,a=-, ,A
-, b=-, ,B
...
-, ,t=-, ,T
...

Wow, this character translation function is awesome and really useful.
Thank you very much Stefan, you've been very kind and avoid me to rename manually thousands of files.
Thanks again, even for the welcome.
Good evening.

Hi, i'm here again because i have another question.
I read a lot of threads in this forum but i didn't find a solution to capitalize just the first letter of a file.
Do you have any idea? Thanks!

No matter, your are welcome.

Good boy

find a solution to capitalize just the first letter of a file.

I would try rule #4 CASE and choose Sentence.
In English they wrote only the first letter upper case in Sentence and don't care for the rest
So Case > Sentence would solve your request i think.

In the field "Excep" you can also wrote some names like BRU, DJ, ABBA,... which you perhaps want to cover from modifying.

Thanks again Stefan for your reply.
I didn't explain in a clear way my doubt.
Trying the various options of BRU I'd already seen the option Sentence but, for instance, I have files in this form

text - Text text.txt

with sentence the file becomes

Text - text text.txt

while i'd like to capitalize the first letter of each file but i don't want to modify the first letter after the hyphen.
Is there a way to modify the first letter of each file leaving intact the rest of them?
I hope I have been more clear this time.

Maybe i had to first use sentence to capitalize my files and then use the character translations to solve the problem i posted before.

I too think this will be the right order
