You'll have to convert a word to upper case 
before looking it up in Junko's dictionary. 
You can use upper() in wildcard.e, or write your own.

If the cipher says that A's are replaced by P's, 
then it also says that a's will be replaced by p's.
Only 26 mappings of one letter to another need to be specified,
not 52, and punctuation, whitespace, etc. remains the same.
