Linux / Windows – what’s the difference…

Bash script to run via command-line to lowercase all file- and folder names in current folder recursively

#!/bin/bash
# first, rename all folders
for f in `find . -depth ! -name CVS -type d`; do
   g=`dirname "$f"`/`basename "$f" | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`
   if [ "xxx$f" != "xxx$g" ]; then
      echo "Renaming folder $f"
      mv -f "$f" "$g"
   fi
done

# now, rename all files
for f in `find . ! -type d`; do
   g=`dirname "$f"`/`basename "$f" | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'`
   if [ "xxx$f" != "xxx$g" ]; then
      echo "Renaming file $f"
      mv -f "$f" "$g"
   fi
done
