Mixed Case Directory Names

[Luke Davis]

When I run it here, it gives me an error if I don't specify a directory on
the command line.  If I give it a valid one, it works perfectly.

If you put it in a file called "renamer", then do:

chmod 700 renamer

Then do:

./renamer /my/path/containing/directories/to/rename

nothing happens?

I do see one thing that needs to change: replace the first line with:

#!/bin/bash
