Not saying you're wrong but OSX is based on Unix. Cheers, Martin

That is, WinXP is case preserving, but not case sensitive. Linux is both case preserving and case sensitive. E.g. file ~/MyFile is not the same as ~/myFile as it is in XP. I think MacOSX is like Windows in that respect, but I could be wrong. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN Unless stated otherwise above: IBM United Kingdom Limited - Registered in England and Wales with number 741598.
