Mixed Case Directory Names

[Rejean Proulx]

I know now, you remove the temp file, create a file with the commands and
run it.  I had to figure this out, but it is tougher when you don't know the
language.  There is obviously a tolower function.  I will try to run this
tonight if I can get the stuff copied to my windows machine as a backup in
time.
