I see no benefit to case-sensitivity in matching (especially when it’s inconsistent and undiscoverable), and you’ve run across an obvious drawback.

I’m sure you fall into that group. :-) > QS seems to be working fine and startup does seem a little faster. I don't know about startup, but matching should be faster. (It only has to look at half as much stuff.) And you shouldn’t need to run it again. The useless entries shouldn’t be created by B61 or later. The one exception I guess is that it removes references to files that don’t exist. If you’re worried about those building up, you could run it again. -- Rob McBroom <http://www.skurfer.com/>
