[gnu.emacs] Missing Features in GNU Emacs?

fuchs@it.uka.de (Harald Fuchs) (02/10/90)

There's a  feature in ex/vi  (*gulp*) that I  need  sometimes and that
seems to be missing in GNU Emacs (Gawk too), namely the \L and \U con-
structs in regular expressions. For example, by
  :%s/\.\(.\)/.\U\1/g
I can change every letter after a period to upper case.
How can I do this with Emacs?
