Define this function somewhere:

function! LowerSub ()
for l in range(1, line("$"))
if getline(l) =~ '-->' && getline(prevnonblank(l-2)) =~ '[[:alpha:]].*[^.?!]$'
call setline(l+1, substitute(getline(l+1), '^.', '\=tolower(submatch(0))', ''))
endif
endfor
endfunction

and call it (":call LowerSub()") in your SRT file. I've added the
question/exclamation marks to the dot because it seemed to make sense,
but you can change that easily.

If you wait a few days (or even a few hours), some wizard should come
up with something using ":global" :)

Best,
Paul
