[GLLUG] Changing the case in file names

[Hampton, Rodney]

ls|perl -e 'while(<STDIN>){chomp $_;$ofn=$_;$nfn=lc($ofn);$nfn=~s/
/_/g;print "new_file_name is $nfn \n";$exec_string="mv $ofn $nfn";print
"exec_string is $exec_string \n";system($exec_string);}'

 

Something like this?

Is there a quick way to rename several files in a directory and
subdirectories so that the file names are in lower case, and also replacing
all spaces with _'s?

 

Thanks,

 

Seth
