2.4.13 A Readline Example
Here is a function which changes lowercase characters to their uppercase
equivalents, and uppercase characters to lowercase. If
this function was bound to ‘M-c’, then typing ‘M-c’ would
change the case of the character under point. Typing ‘M-1 0 M-c’
would change the case of the following 10 characters, leaving the cursor on
the last character changed.
| /* Invert the case of the COUNT following characters. */
int

int count, key;
{
register int start, end, i;
start = rl_point;
if (rl_point >= rl_end)
return (0);
if (count < 0)
{
direction = -1;
count = -count;
}
else
direction = 1;
/* Find the end of the range to modify. */
end = start + (count * direction);
/* Force it to be within range. */

so it will save the undo information. */
