To switch the case of one or more characters use the "~", "gU" or
"gu" commands.
Examples:
~ - switch case of character under cursor
(in visual-mode: switch case of highlighted text)
3~ - switch case of next three characters
g~~ - switch case of current line
U - in visual-mode: make highlighted text uppercase
gUU - make current line uppercase
u - in visual-mode: make highlighted text lowercase
guu - make current line lowercase
gUaw - make current word uppercase
guaw - make current word lowercase
