FILNAMES UPPER TO LOWER

This script can be used to 
renames all the file in 
current directory with 
UPPERCASE letters to lowercase.

I uses it because some time when
I try to upload some files from 
a Windows system to a unix based 
web server, the files somehow gets 
converted to UPPERCASES, which is 
undesirable.

###########################

for uppercase in `ls`
do
  for lowercase in `ls $uppercase|tr [A-Z] [a-z]`
  do
     mv $lowercase $uppercase 2>/dev/null
  done
done
