When editing for example a ruby file, can't emacs toggle CamelCase to snake_case out of the box?

Example ruby file

  def SecDecGov
    puts "abort"
  end

AIK there is no such function out of the box. https://stackoverflow.com/q/9288181 describes similar question with useful answers. – Konstantin Morenko Nov 20 '18 at 13:52
There is also Glasses Mode which displays CamelCase symbols in more readable ways. – Juancho Nov 20 '18 at 14:09
even with prelude extensions .. – american-ninja-warrior Nov 20 '18 at 14:23

See the string-inflection package. – Dan Nov 20 '18 at 14:29
The Emacs Wiki has a large page on CamelCase. – nega Nov 20 '18 at 15:38
