Re: Filename conversion to uppercase

You can use the "tr" command to do this, but the best way is usually with
the "typeset" command.

e.g. typeset -u variable1="file.name.whatever"

You can simply do "typeset -u variable1" at the top of your script, then
whenever a value is assigned it will be converted to upper case.
