Hi,
In comp.editors I came across mmv and zmv

# zmv "programmable rename"
# Replace spaces in filenames with a underline
zmv '* *' '$f:gs/ /_'
# Change the suffix from *.sh to *.pl
zmv -W '*.sh' '*.pl'
# lowercase/uppercase all files/directories
$ zmv '(*)' '${(L)1}' # lowercase
$ zmv '(*)' '${(U)1}' # uppercase

The case changers don't work on Cygwin because WinXP grumbles target & source filename are the same!
