@Starkers It's just an assignment with a ternary, i.e. if...else written in one line. You can spell it out in Ruby as string[i] = (if char == char.upcase then string[i].upcase else string[i].downcase end).

I'd expect the part of the string that extends beyond the end of template to have its case preserved, not forcibly downcased.
