🌸 NAME 🌸

string-lower — convert strings to lowercase

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

string lower [-q | --quiet] [STRING ...]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

string lower converts each string argument to lowercase. Every single string you hand over gets the lowercase glow-up, no cap.

Exit status: 0 if at least one string was converted to lowercase, else 1. That exit status is literally doing main character work. Which means that in conjunction with the -q flag you can readily test whether a string is already lowercase. Cute, right? 🎀

The synopsis also shows --quiet, so -q and --quiet are both in the chat. 🫶
