If the directory did indeed have some uppercase letters than this call: lc_filenames("$dir/$file"); would process a nonexisting directory (it is after you renamed the "$dir/$file").

    Wouldn't the line above it:

    solve that by making $file (which in this case is a directory) the lowercase version? Or perhaps there's something else I'm not seeing.
