I have defined 2 very simple python scripts for to lower / upper command separately, based on @eht16 's script, and assigned shortcut CTRL + L and CTRL + U to them respectively, it works on my Linux machine now.

The scripts

geanyLowerCase.py:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# geany - customized formatting - to lower case,
import sys

def lower_case(string):
    return string.lower()

def main():
    data = sys.stdin.read()
    sys.stdout.write(lower_case(data))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

geanyUpperCase.py:

#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

# geany - customized formatting - to upper case,
import sys

def upper_case(string):
    return string.upper()

def main():
    data = sys.stdin.read()
    sys.stdout.write(upper_case(data))

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

Additional steps to make it work

• Link these 2 scripts under $PATH.
• Link script as command in geany.
  • in geany,
  • edit -> format -> send selection to -> set custom commands,
  • add the script, and label it,
  • remember its order in the commands,
• Define shortcut for new commands.
  • edit -> preference -> keybindings -> format,
  • change key for "send to custom command x",
    where x is the order of you new command when define it,
• Test it.
• Done.

Possible improvements needed

• After format via shortcut, the select text are not selected any more.
  Maybe it's better to still select those text after the action.
• This is tested on Linux, not on windows yet,.
  Might need to modify the script a bit to make it work, e.g the shebang part.

More scripts?

• to Capital case.
  e.g aBc -> Abc
