Try this:

# tolower.sh: convert file names to lower case
# in the current working directory
# Choose either all the files in a directory or 
# a command-line list
if [ "$#" -gt 0 ]; then
   filelist="$@" # just the files on command line
else
   filelist=`ls` # all files
fi
for file in $filelist; do
# Use the grep command to determine if the file
# has an upper case letter
# Determine the destination of the mv command by 
# down shifting all the 
# letters in the file name. Command substituting an 
# echo of the file name to the translate filter, tr, 
# performs the downshift
   if echo "$file"|grep [A-Z] > /dev/null; then
      mv "$file" `echo "$file"|tr "[A-Z]" "[a-z]"`
   fi
done
