Change all shapefile file extensions to lowercase

Shapefile generate 4 filetypes (shp, shx, dbf, prj). When Alteryx generates a shapefile, the latter 3 file types are in uppercase, only shp is in lowercase. Can you change all 4 filetypes to lowercase so we don't have problems reading them in linux?
Thanks!

Please please get round to this! It's been 4 years now (not since the idea was suggested but in collective time we've all spent correcting the extensions)
