Version 2.9.0 - New User-Maintained "Title Rules Table" that uses regular expressions to change/delete words in titles; Revised User Instructions.

This release brings you the ability to use Regular Expressions to change any word in any Work Title as you wish. 62 seed entries in table _title_rules already will capitalize common acronyms (e.g. fbi, nsa, cia, wtc, asap, rfid, laser, radar, scuba, etc.), as well as Roman Numerals (i, ii, iii, iv, v, vi, vii, viii, ix, x). It also changes two profane words to their more socially acceptable versions: F**K and S**T.

Using the identical GUI-based tool that you already use for Tag Rules, you can modify this table as you wish. It is now yours.

The User Instructions have had 8 new pages added to explain this new functionality. Click the "Read Q&S Instructions" icon on the Q&S Menu to view it.

As always, you must immediately run the "Upgrade Version" job on the Q&S menu to add new SQLite objects. Version 2.9.0 has a single new object, table _title_rules.

Be sure to read the revised User Instructions.

Remember that Q&S already uses an advanced English-specific titlecasing function, and also already uses a function that inserts spaces into camelback strings (e.g. TheManAteAnApple). So, if you use Q&S, you will already have a Work Title that has been scrubbed clean of Authors, Series and Series Indexes embedded within it, and is already properly capitalized with few exceptions (mainly acronyms). The new Title Rules feature handles those few exceptions.
