Not in front of a keyboard, but does tr not work? echo "something in turkish" | LC_ALL=tr_TR tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]"

You had a lot of patient to type that on a mobile device

I was on an iPad w/keyboard, so technically I had a keyboard but not a macOS shell.

Yeah, Java's version of Windows XP and Python 2, time to move on.

Not quite. While Java 10 is end-of-life because it isn't an LTS version, Java 8 still is actively supported.

Kind of, depends how much one is willing to pay for support.

Shops that care about LTS should be on 11 instead of clinging their teeth on 8.

My understanding is that macOS doesn't ship those runtimes anymore.

They're all still in the current Monterey beta (21A5294g) but python2 says (paraphrasing) "this is only for compatibility; it might not be here in future"

It wasn't in the above list, but Apple did completely remove PHP in Monterey.
