Hi,
I need to batch rename all files with extension .PDF to extension .pdf.
They may or may not have spaces in the filenames.
The following works ONLY if there are no spaces in the filename:
for f in *.PDF; do
base=`basename $f .PDF`
mv $f $base.pdf
done
Can anyone provide a tip to something that will work regardless of
whether there are spaces in the filenames or not?
