How to set the first letter in a line to caps in notepad++

Question

I want to set the first letter in each line to caps in notepad++..how do I do this?

Answer 1

You could select the block consisting of only the first column: hold Alt while selecting with the mouse. Then press Ctrl-Shift-U to convert the selected letters to uppercase.

This kind of selection is called rectangular selection in the Notepad++ help. You can also define the selection with the keyboard by pressing Alt and Shift and using the cursor keys.
