How to convert all filenames in a directory to lowercase on linux

This post will show you how to convert all filenames in a directory to lowercase (or uppercase). This is on that I don’t use often, so I’m adding it here in order to find it later on, hopefully!


convmv --lower --notest *

you can use *.jpg to rename all jpeg images, etc
–upper in place of –lower will make the files uppercase instead
