                  The seventh point in Things that are generally unacceptable is most relevant.

                    I directly intended emphasis on the entire sentence. Please note, the entire post was not in all caps, the exclamation points were perfectly natural.

                      You say that, but I checked all the punctuation and they were definitely upper case (ASCII code <0x60) - even the comma (,).
                      Tilde (~) may be considered acceptable at a stretch.

                          As with any logic Motoma - the results are only as good as the underlying principles.
                          You don't really need me to post all the code to compare it with the equally incorrect check against the results of the upper & toupper constructs in the various languages.
                          It would contradict, but be just as unreliable as your efforts (no more so though).

                            So to paraphrase: "I could prove you wrong, but I'm not going to."

                              To paraphrase, I could provide proof just as good as yours to show I was right. Unfortunately, it's also just as bad ==> useless :( No less valid than yours, but no more so either.
                              You don't need me to spell it out surely?

                                I guess the only one that really proves my point is the bash script, which correctly asserts that "!" is not uppercase.
