I need to convert all text to lowercase, but not using the traditional “tr” command because it does not handle UTF-8 languages properly.

Is there a nice way to do that? I need some UNIX filter so I can process this in a pipe.

    Gnu sed should be able to handle unicode. Try

    $ echo 'Some StrAngÉ LeTTeRs 123' | sed -e 's/./\L\0/g'
    some strangé letters 123
