Uppercase to lowercase [resolved]


I don't know much about batch files, but I'm guessing the wildcard character represents any number of characters that can come before that would be unaffected. So when you say "ren *A *a", all that would do is change the last character of the file name to "a" if it was "A" previously.


What you need, and I don't know if batch files support this, is to get a list of all the file names, loop through each of them, then change them all to lowercase (the exact method to do this depends on how batch files handle strings).


While I don't know much about batch files, I can think of an incredibly simple Python script that will do this. You interested?

thanks for the script offer though.
