Ideas for new Commands / Constants

[Mr-Xcoder]

I've been thinking about this for a while now and it is apparent to me that the following would be really useful:

• 2 ž-constants:
  • aeiouAEIOU (or AEIOUaeiou) – alias for žMDu«
  • aeiouyAEIOUY (or AEIOUYaeiouy) – alias for žODu«
• 2 two-byte command:
  • Extended Transliteration / Replacement – I am not sure if one of the current commands already achieves this, to be honest – (maybe .‡): Given a string and a list containing the replacements achieve something like this: "Elephant" [["AEIOU", "aeiou"], ["U", "u"]] .‡ (I prefer this one) or "Elephant" [["AEIOU", "U"], ["aeiou", "u"]] .‡ would yield "Uluphunt". Overloads for standalone strings rather than arrays would also be cool: "elephant" "aeiou" "u" would yield "uluphunt"
  • Interchange capitalisation (maybe .Ï). Example: "CoDeGoLf" "abcdefgh" .Ï would yield "AbCdEfGh". In case the two strings would not match in length, the remaining characters would just be left as-is.

Example where those all could be useful – The current answer is (20 bytes):

lžMÃÙεžMDu«s5×Du«‡}»

Using the first suggestion, this could be 17 bytes:

lžMÃÙεž?s5×Du«‡}»

Using extended transliteration alongside interchanging capitalisation would be even stronger. An outline of the technique: Keep only the vowels, deduplicate, map over those, extended transliterate from aeiou to the current vowel (y), then interchange capitalisation with the input and join by newlines.

@Adriandmen Any thoughts on this? Edit: I accidentally closed and reopened the issue right away... Sorry :S

@Mr-Xcoder Thank you for the suggestion! I have implemented the constants and the capitalization exchange command: #122.

I'm not sure about the extended transliteration/replacement command. The way the parameters should be given looks very clumsy. Perhaps rather than [["AEIOU", "aeiou"], ["U", "u"]], would ["AEIOU", "aeiou"], ["U", "u"] (as two separate elements) work?

[Mr-Xcoder]

@Adriandmen That would work too for the extended transliteration command. It's up to you if you implement it or not anyway :)

[Mr-Xcoder]

Implemented, except for extended transliteration, in #122.
