The RE above captures and replaces all HTML tags with lowercase as
desired except for any tag that has only one letter such as <P>,
<B> or <I>
It will get the </B>, </P> and </I>
It properly ignores the <!DOCTYPE> tag
What is the correct way to write the above RE?
HTML tag names can't contain spaces, so you want
s|(</?)([A-Z][A-Z0-9]*)|$1\L$2|g;
Is there a difference between "\U</" and "\L</"?
