That's only necessary to preserve the current ns_config case-insensitivity, right? Wouldn't it be easier to just canonicalize the key values on both write and read? E.g., create a wrapper around nsv which forces all keys to all lowercase. Then the key "Foo_Bar" will be automatically translated to "foo_bar" in all situations. -- Andrew Piskorski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.piskorski.com/
