- Subject: Document spelling of "lowercase" and "uppercase"
Howdy,
In the GCC tree, "lowercase" and "uppercase" are about 3 times
more common than "lower case" and "upper case", and 10 times more
common than "upper-case" and "lower-case." The following patch
documents this preference.
OK to commit?
