Yes. You should probably run them under a Cygwin shell and not a 
Windows' command window. Or learn Windows commands such as (IIRC) 
"findstr" that could be used in place of "grep".

However, you don't need to run those example at all - simply trust us 
that uppercase (and specials) *will* be used, just not very early in the 
process.
