 I am not sure, in xemacs-21.1.14 no such function or variable
 exists. Let me clarify again my point
 
 Suppose I have an entry like this in my .abbrev_defs
 
 (global-abbrev-table)
 "Anwer"        0     "Answer"
 
 Then also anwer is expanded to Answer which is wrong. It should be of
 course answer. 
Ah, you are using abbrev-mode.  I only use dabbrev-mode so I
don't know much about that mode.  If you want to change
expand-abbrev to do that, it's in src/abbrev.c.  There're
some calls to Fupcase_initials_region and Fupcase_region.
Probably changing some of those code will achieve what you
want.
