lowercase filenames

Postby w3a537 » Thu Aug 26, 2010 5:49 am

I know this is such a basic question.
But I ask anyway.

How do you convert a filename to all lowercase?

In BRU help there is a lowercase item but it doesn't link to anything useful.

I searched the forum but found nothing that helped me.

I tried what I think is a correct regular expression but it didn't work.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Steve, welcome.

How about using "Case(4)" with "Lower" selected?

BRU Help
Code: Select all
  Using the Application
      The Main Screen
          Replacements
             - Allow the changing of case

                  Case drop-down - allows the capitalisation of file and/or folder names to be changed.
                  · Same - leaves the original capitalisation intact.
                  · Lower - converts all letters in the name(s) to lower-case.
                  · Upper - converts all letters in the name(s) into capitals.
                  · Title - converts all the words in the selected items to initial caps


Hint: select your files in the "Name"-column to see how the rules modify the file names in the "NewName"-column.

HTH? :D

It worked, thanks.

In the help file it might be good to update the
"lowercase" and "uppercase" entries.

And also EVERY other blank entry.

Or just delete them.
