You can write a function to split the words, for example taking in
account the points too, etc.

Python strings have isupper, islower, istitle methods, they may be
enough for your purposes.

It seems good. To join the words of a line there's str.join. Now you
can write a function that splits lines, and another to check the case,
then you can show them to us.

Yet, I don't see how much use can have your output file :-)
