Shawn,
After adding
\bind "C-x c" "word-capitalize"
\bind "C-x l" "word-lowcase"
\bind "C-x u" "word-upcase"
\bind "M-u" "word-upcase"
to ~/.lyx/bind/emacs.bind, find the line in that file
# \bind "C-x c" "lyx-quit"
and add the # comment character before the line so it does not
override the `C-x c' mapping for word-capitalize.
Then, make sure that LyX is using the emacs.bind file for
key-bindings. In the version I use (lyx-1.1.5fix2), that is done with
a line in ~/.lyx/lyxrc
\bind_file emacs
Later versions of LyX may require the key-binding configuration
elsewhere. Once you've told LyX to use the emacs.bind key-bindings,
restart LyX, put the cursor before a word, and you should find that
`C-x c' (Control-x followed by c) will capitalize the word, `C-x l'
will lowercase the word, and `C-x u' will uppercase the word.
One caution: these commands do not work as well as the corresponding
commands in [x]emacs. In xemacs, you can put the cursor before a
space, give an upcase|capitalize|downcase command, and the word
following the space will be modified. In LyX, the cursor must be
immediately before the first letter of the word for the commands to
work.
