Establish consistent capitalization #95
Comments
I don't feel strongly. Uppercasing is fine with me, but I don't promise to always do so throughout my tweets, presentations, slack messages and other communiques. |

There are inconsistent stylings of deon lowercase and Deon uppercase throughout the documentation. There should be an agreed-upon styling, and the other way should be fixed.
As for considerations:
There are examples of other command-line programs adopting either styling:
grep
,pip
Other option is to use deon lowercase everywhere, except when beginning a sentence. Deon is uppercase at the start of a sentence. This is kind of a cop-out, which avoids some awkwardness, but ends up with inconsistency.
Personally, I'm in favor of uppercase Deon, because I really don't like the weird sentence beginnings. I could also go with the lowercase-except-sentence-beginning.
FWIW, the Wikipedia Style Guide would suggest uppercasing.
