Change File Names to Upper or Lower case
March 13th, 2007 by Marcos
You may already know about this, but there are some useful Applescripts that Apple includes with OS X. You can enable the script menu (if it’s not there already), by using the Applescript Utility, which is in /Applications/Applescript/. Also, be sure to check “Use Library Scripts.”
Once enabled, you’ll see a variety of scripts for several programs in the Script menu. It’s the Finder scripts where the case script is located. Just select one or more items in the Finder, and pick the “Change Case of Item Names” script. You’ll be prompted for upper or lower case. Then, the Finder does it thing. Pretty handy.
If you’re interested in writing your own Applescripts, looking at all the included examples, including this one, is a good place to start. Also, check out the pdf of the Applescript Language guide which is a handy reference. Or if you’re really hardcore, check out “AppleScript: The Definitive Guide, 2nd Edition” (Amazon link).
