+  Converts only the first character in the given string to
+  uppercase according to `mode`.
+
+  `mode` may be `:default`, `:ascii` or `:greek`. The `:default` mode considers
+  all non-conditional transformations outlined in the Unicode standard. `:ascii`
+  lowercases only the letters A to Z. `:greek` includes the context sensitive
+  mappings found in Greek.
