I just started to play with shell scripts because I got tired of running
upstairs to see if some long running 'thing' was done.

My first attempt, which I got working, automates the custom kernel
build.
One problem:
I have to enter the kernel name twice, once lower case and the other
upper case.

I do not have any books on shell scrips so please excuse the sans-RTFM
question.

Is there something that will uppercase a variable?  Possibly putting the
value in another variable?

Cheers...

P.S.  If anybody knows of a "FreeBSD shell scripts for Dummies" can you
point me at it?  Thanks...
