The best way that I have found is to use the following
VARIABLE=`echo $VARIABLE|dd conv=lcase 2>/dev/null`
Do a man on dd to see the other useful goodies.
The 2>/dev/null is optional, but does gives a cleaner output.

I dunno about commands, but if you're writing software, I think ANSI C/C++
uses the functions tolower() and toupper() (I may be misremembering, tho)
