    }
    { print; }
' input-file >output-file

Thanks. Actually I missed the lower case requirement, but I think just the replacement, not the whole line should be translated:

Code:
awk '
    /nameInNameSpace/ {
        match( $0, "nameInNameSpace=\"[^\"]*\"" )
        split( substr( $0, RSTART, RLENGTH ), a, "=" );
        gsub( "/", ".", a[2] );
        $0 = tolower( a[2] );
        sub( "name=\"[^\"]*\"", "name=" a[2]  );
    }
    { print; }
' input-file >output-file

Test::Inline::Content::Simple(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation			Test::Inline::Content::Simple(3pm)

NAME
Test::Inline::Content::Simple - Simple templating Content Handler SYNOPSIS
In your inline2test.tpl ---------------------- #!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict; use Test::More [% plan %]; $| = 1; [% tests %] 1; DESCRIPTION
It is relatively common to want to customise the contents of the generated test files to set up custom environment things on an all-scripts basis, rather than file by file (using =begin SETUP blocks). "Test::Inline::Content::Simple" lets you use a very simple Template Toolkit style template to define this information. It contains only two tags, "plan" and "tests". The "plan" tag will be inserted as either "tests =" 123> or 'no_plan'. The "tests" tag will be replaced by the actual testing code. METHODS
new $filename Manually create a new "Test::Inline::Content::Simple" object. Takes as parameter a single filename which should contain the template code. Returns a new "Test::Inline::Content::Simple" object, or "undef" on error. template The "template" accessor returns the template content for the object process $Inline, $Script The "process" method is unchanged from "Test::Inline::Content".
