Search term wrapper that allows for different capitalization of term

Source: R/mx_syntax.R
mx_caps.Rd

Inspired by the varying capitalization of "NCOV" during the corona virus pandemic (e.g. ncov, nCoV, NCOV, nCOV), this function allows for all possible configurations of lower- and upper-case letters in your search term.

Usage

mx_caps(x)

Arguments

x

Search term to be formatted

Value

The input string is return, but with each non-space character repeated in lower- and upper-case, and enclosed in square brackets. For example, mx_caps("ncov") returns "[Nn][Cc][Oo][Vv]"
