Mixed Case Directory Names

[Luke Davis]

This should do it for you.  Call it with the root directory of the
directories/files whos' names you want to change.

For example, if you called it "renamer", and your files were in
"/var/www/files/otherfiles", you would do:

./renamer /var/www/files/otherfiles

The script follows:

#!/bin/sh
cd $1 || echo "No such directory." && exit 1;
tf=/tmp/renamer.$$;
rm -f $tf;
ls *[A-Z]* | awk '{print "mv", $1, tolower($1)}' > $tf;
source $tf;
rm -f $tf;
exit 0;
