[WDSCI-L] ALT-i (lowercase selection)

I use this feature quite a bit when modernizing some of my old
programs... one gotcha is the fact that it lowercases "literal" values.

Example:
IGRIDC = 'IG';
Becomes
igridc = 'ig';

Is there any way to prevent this? The editor obviously recognizes
literals and comments

I use the selection technique of Shift and a combination of the right- (or
left-arrow) key with the Ctrl-key. Then I stop at the literals. Alt+i
works for all selection types.
