Filename Extension Case Sensitivity

[ajgiampa]

I'm trying to run a QIV slideshow composed of all the JPEG files in a directory. The QIV command uses the *.jpg wildcard, but some of the JPEG files I'm using have their file extensions capitalized, such as DSC123.JPG instead of DSC123.jpg.

Is there a way to issue command line commands and not have the file extension be case sensitive. I'd like the QIV image program to read all JPEG files, regardless of the case of the actual file extension.

Thanks...

In Linux things are case-sensitive, because that's the Right Thing to do.

You could fuss with QIV, or you could rename all of your files to have a lower-case extension.

Here's the QIV homepage, with a list of command options:

Here's a discussion on renaming files (Google has millions more):

You can match both cases by writing *.jpg *.JPG, or all possible combinations with *.[jJ][pP][gG].
