Hm.
Adding \+ after \l is the right thing to do, I think; it matches any
number of consecutive noninitial lowercase in one fell swoop.
AFAIK, with this regexp the second \zs (after \|) isn't necessary. Then
adding a * after the \A may (or may not - it's a guess) make it work
faster on strings containing many clustered nonalpha.
If your string starts with a nonalphabetic character, you'll remove it
(because you removed the . I put to try and test for it) but maybe you
don't care about that. If you do, you may want to study
:help E59
:help /zero-width
and what they resend to.
Also, please be aware of the fact that _bottom_-posting is preferred on
this list.
Best regards,
Tony.
