Hi,
I use the perl script 'chcase' available from
http://www.blemished.net/chcase.html.
It is very easy to use. I copy the help below:
chcase 1.2
USAGE:
chcase [-erdouqnl] [-s <dir>] [-x '<perl exp>'] '<mask>'
-e : Print EXAMPLES - very helpful!
-r : Rename recursively
-d : Also rename subdirectories
-o : Overwrite if file exists
-u : Change to upper case (default is lower)
-q : Quiet mode (no output)
-n : No escape characters (for bold output)
-l : Rename & follow symbolic links (default is not to)
-s <dir> : Specify starting directory
-x '<perl exp>' : Perl expression to operate on filename
usually s/// or tr/// (yes you need the quotes)
case of filename not changed when this option used
you can supply multiple expressions
'<mask>' : Mask to rename (quotes are nice to have here)
not case sensitive, you can use multiple masks
-or- just supply the filename(s) on the command line

Subject: [newbie] rename multiple folders
| I have a bunch of folders(several hundred) that I copied over from my
Win2k
| partition that I want to rename. Windows names them using a capital letter
| and I want to rename them all to all lower case.
|
| Example: rename Documents to documents
|
| Is there an easy way to do this? I don't want to do all these one at a
time.
|
| Thanks,
|
