lower-case script...

when I burned a disk with a lot of. txt files on the work, they of some strange reason came in capital letters, and many '_'. . . very annoying. To save time, how do I make a. bat or like that renames stuff to the same but just changes from capital to lower-case letters? (OS MSXP).

Enable Joliet when burning the disk. This creates a secondary file descriptor with less restrictions than ISO.
 
For manipulating file names, try some Perl scripting. Much more useful than batch files.

Perl would be ideal in this situation, I have an assembler exe that takes in command line syntax.

ie: filetobeconverted > this.exe
