From: jmamer@anderson.ucla.edu (John Mamer) Subject: upper/lower case question 12 Oct 1997 21:48:52 -0700 Message-ID: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII To: gnu-win32@cygnus.com Hi! Another newbie question: I have a bunch of files, originally written under UNIX, that have arrived at my gnu-win32 directory via DOS (am running on Windows NT 4.0-sp3). The problem is that in the process the file names have all been translated to upper case. I tried the obvious thing: cp FILE.C file.c but it didn't work. I wound up reading each file into emacs, and then copying it into a new directory using the lower case name. This worked, but it seems, somehow, inelegant. I know that this is the result of a DOS/UNIX incompatibility, and not strictly speaking gnu-win32's fault, but is there a neater way to do this? (I anticipate having to do this in the future). thanks j. - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request@cygnus.com" with one line of text: "help".
