ANOTHER CASE TRANSLATION 
If you have occasion where
 you need to translate upper
 case to lower and vice
 versa, and happen to run a
 ksh, enter the following
 functions into your .profile:
 
 function trans
 {
 tr '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]' < $1 > $2
 }
 function TRANS
 {
 tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]' <$1 > $2
 }
 
 
 The first function will
 translate all uppercase
 letters in the first file
 (argument) to lowercase in
 the second file.
 
 The second function TRANS does the exact opposite.
