Nicola Talbot submitted an update to the

mfirstuc

package.

Version number: 2.08 2022-10-14
License type: lppl1.3

Summary description: Uppercase the first letter of a word

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

This release is part of a set of inter-connected releases all dated 2022-10-14:
bib2gls v3.0, glossaries v4.50, mfirstuc v2.08 and
glossaries-extra v1.49. The uploads will have to be staggered over the course of
a week, but if you update mfirstuc make sure you also update
the others in the set if you require them.

* Reimplemented \makefirstuc in LaTeX3. This change supports
UTF-8 with pdflatex.

Rollback to v2.07 provided:

\usepackage{mfirstuc}[=v2.07]

* New command \MFUsentencecase

This just uses \text_titlecase_first:n

Principle features of \MFUsentencecase vs \makefirstuc are
listed in Table 1 of the manual.

* \makefirstuc has been rewritten to internally use
\MFUsentencecase (via \glsmakefirstuc), but it still parses
its argument as in previous versions.

* New command \MFUexcl{<cs>}

This adds a command to the case-changing exclusion list.
Both \MFUsentencecase and \makefirstuc will skip the
identified command and its argument, and apply sentence-casing
to the content that follows.

For example, glossaries.sty v4.50 implements \MFUexcl{\glsadd}

* New command \MFUblocker{<cs>}

This adds a command to the blocker list. This is used by
\makefirstuc but not \MFUsentencecase. If the command is encountered
no case-change will be applied. This is designed for commands
that automatically implement a case-change that may have been nested.

For example, glossaries.sty v4.50 implements \MFUblocker{\Gls}

* New command \MFUaddmap{<cs1>}{<cs2>}

Adds a mapping. This is used by \makefirstuc but not
\MFUsentencecase. If the first command <cs1> is encountered
it will be replaced with the second <cs2>. No case change
will be applied. (The case-change, if appropriate,
should be dealt with by the replacement command.)

For example, glossaries.sty v4.50 implements \MFUaddmap{\gls}{\Gls}

Order of precedence: map, blocker, exclusion

* New commands \MFUsaveatend and \MFUsave
