Regular expression case translation

I ran into a regex search and replace problem I couldn't solve.

Say you've got a class with dozens of references to these variables:

topFloor
middleFloor
bottomFloor

You want to change them all to be "mTopFloor", "mMiddleFloor", and "mBottomFloor".

I can get close with this regex:

search: (top|middle|bottom)Floor
replace: m\1Floor

But of course the "top|middle|bottom" part remains lower cased.

Is there a trick for getting the substitution to automatically upper- case the first letter of the matched word?

Daniel
