When scripting - or advising on a forum - you'd be "neater". Yes, just doing it in a few invocations is fine and the kind of thing you'd often do when working locally. "*.jPg" theoretical.) so that, indeed, it then skipped any not literally matching "*.jpg" and including any file "*.JPG". It then followed that you in that case did mean things more generally - as I said before: "Gnarf." - and translated to "*.jpg" yourself but keeping -name rather than -iname (or using \( -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.JPG' \) which also foregoes selecting also e.g. Next, head to File Explorer, right-click multiple files.

When I assumed that "image.jpg" was meant as placeholder for "*.jpg" I used -iname, the case-insensitive version of -name, so as to have it even more helpfully refer to "all jpeg files". why would it be case insensitive when adding $ but then be case sensitive for removing it? JPG files (capitalized) that all still had a leading $ even though the command that added the $ had only specified lowercase. Interestingly though, this left me with 36.
