Hello.
I have problem with case-modifying word expansions in bash.
http://wiki.bash-hackers.org/syntax/pe#case_modification
bash -c 'foo="żółw"; echo ${foo^^}'
żółW
Characters with diacritical marks are not affected.
However, it works in zsh:
zsh -c 'foo="żółw"; echo ${(U)foo}'
ŻÓŁW
Terminal character encoding: UTF-8
# locale
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_CTYPE="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_NUMERIC="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_TIME="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_COLLATE="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_MONETARY="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_MESSAGES="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_PAPER="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_NAME="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_ADDRESS="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_TELEPHONE="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="pl_PL.utf8"
LC_ALL=pl_PL.utf8
I tried also LC_ALL=en_US.utf8
# locale -a | grep -E "^pl_"
pl_PL
pl_PL.iso88592
pl_PL.utf8
