Actually, I think I know what was causing the issue.... While in INSERT mode, I had moved the cursor to the first letter in the word and then pressed ctrl-d. Going from insert to normal mode causes the cursor to move to the left, since there was no longer a word beneath the cursor, nothing was upper-cased....
Does anyone know how I can prevent the cursor from moving when I go from INSERT to normal mode... or revise my mapping so that it works regardless of where the cursor is within the word when ctrl-d is pressed?
