When calling 'tr' without quoting braces, bash can make really weird things
if there are existing 'single-letter-named' directories
eg:
tbultel at laois:~/test$ echo AAA | tr [A-Z] [a-z]
aaa
tbultel at laois:~/test$ echo AAA | tr [A-Z] [a-z]
AAA
The (quick) analysis is that the callee (tr) argvs then
contain 'm' thus the translation does not work
Using quotes works around it
tbultel at laois:~/test$ echo AAA | tr '[A-Z]' '[a-z]'
aaa
