Just like that, I received about 15 answers! I knew it was
an easy one. Thanks for the quick answers and too many to
list here individually.
Here are some examples:
cat file.in | awk '{ print $1 " " tolower($1) }' >file.out
_____________
touch output
cat input | while read line
do
echo $line `echo $line | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'` >> output
done
_______________
cp file temp
dd if=temp conv=lcase of=temp2
paste temp temp2 > temp3
I only tried the first example and it worked fine.
original question follows.
thanks!
