in reply to Renaming Sub Dir/Files.

Quick question ... What was wrong with the answers provided to you when you posted a few days ago here? All three replies, including my own, addressed your issue - with the exception of the aspect of renaming directories as well. However this could be easily implemented in the code that I provided that used File::Find through the removal of the return unless (-f _); line. eg.

#!d:/perl/bin/perl -w

use File::Find;
use strict;

find ({
    'wanted'    =>  \&renamefile,
}, '/path/to/sub/directory');

sub renamefile {
    my ($dev, $ino, $mode, $nlink, $uid, $gid);
    return unless (($dev, $ino, $mode, $nlink, $uid, $gid) = lstat($_)
+);
    rename $_, lc($_);
}

    That should read 
        rename $_, lc($_) or warn "Could not rename $_ to @{[lc($_)]}: $!\
+n";

    In case the target filename already exists in the directory (especially if case-sensitive filesystems are involved). Or warn instead of die. Or break lc($_) out into a variable to avoid the code interpolation. Whatever.

SYNTAX: perl case.pl path outputf subs

USAGE: Take a directory/sub dir and convert all caps/single to lowerca
+se

Notes:
 1. files/subs either "0" or "1"
    -0 = current files in direc
    -1 = all current file and file in subdirs

ex "./case.pl /home/joeh out 1"
   
EOT
