A very good point.  Another patch (against my previous post) and the new
script are attached.  The new version fixes variable quoting and some
other minor things and incorporates Corinna's suggestion.
(Aside: should I be posting the actual scripts, or can people follow the
trail of patches?)

TODO: The sed script strikes me as a bit inelegant.  Also, I still can't
think of a way to make sure the case of the paths is correct.
Suggestions?

It took the computational power of three Commodore 64s to fly to the moon.
It takes a 486 to run Windows 95.  Something is wrong here. -- SC sig file
