Unless you are running on 7.3-1, the first OS release where case sensitivity (over and above case preservation) is possible with filenames, I can't think of how this rename would help. On 7.3 and earlier, even on ODS-5 with parse style extended, I don't think the compiler will refuse to compile foo.c because it doesn't look like foo.C. Unless the processing of dependency rules is done in a case sensitive fashion. Perhaps MMS added ODS-5 support half-heartedly? I haven't kept up with MMS releases and don't know if 3.3-4 (what I have) is the latest. I do remember having built Perl 5.6.1 under OVMS Alpha v7.2-1 on an ODS-5 disk with no problems, though that would have been with MMK. -- ________________________________________ Craig A.
