changing only the case of file extentions in digikam




I have discovered digikam recently for managing my digital pictures. Earlier I used to use command line to do all of the processing (imagemagick, jhead, bash scripts, etc.).

There is one little problem with digikam (looking from a GUI user's point of view). It has the feature of changing the case of filenames of images. I was wondering if the maintainer could put in an option which only converts the case of the extension of the filename and leave the basename case alone. This is so because many cameras save the extension in upper case whereas most of the files seem to have lowercase extensions. The basename, however, could be of mixed case.

Even if this option in added in the plugin that come with digikams, it would be great.

And yes, I can easiy get it done with a bash oneliner, but as I said, from a GUI user's perspective this option would polish the digikam further. Very nice application thought. Quite impressed with it.
