I tried access a mixed case file using jhs and it worked fine:
jhs jfile:
~home/Google/GD/
../
.tmp.drivedownload/
Test.ijs
Test1.gmap
desktop.ini
In jqt and the j dir verb the files all showed up as lower case.
dir '~home/Google/GD'
.tmp.drivedownload <dir> 01-Feb-18 06:18:21
desktop.ini 180 01-Feb-18 06:16:59
test.ijs 31 01-Feb-18 06:18:14
test1.gmap 148 18-Jun-15 07:42:4

The problem isn't specific to jqt, but also seen in jconsole and even
regular DOS commands.
For example, I created a "c:\my drive" with the exact same file as in
"g:\my drive". Then in a command shell, ordinary commands like "dir" and
"type" do not work properly:
E:\>dir "c:\my drive"
Volume in drive C has no label.
Volume Serial Number is 1CBA-33B6
Directory of c:\my drive
2018-01-31 03:02 PM <DIR> .
2018-01-31 03:02 PM <DIR> ..
2018-01-31 03:00 PM 11 t1.ijs
1 File(s) 11 bytes
2 Dir(s) 51,331,174,400 bytes free
E:\>dir "g:\my drive"
Volume in drive G is Google Drive File Stream
Volume Serial Number is 1983-1116
Directory of g:\
2018-01-31 01:39 PM <DIR> My Drive
0 File(s) 0 bytes
1 Dir(s) 32,176,885,760 bytes free
E:\>type "c:\my drive\t1.ijs"
A=: 123
E:\>type "g:\my drive\t1.ijs"
The system cannot find the path specified.
... but the file is there in g:
E:\>g:
G:\>cd my drive
G:\My Drive>type t1.ijs
A=: 123

I have seen similar behavior when trying to read from device files.
In that case, the reported size of the content was zero, but reading
from the file would nevertheless produce results (and, in some cases,
eventually one would encounter an end of file).
I don't have a google drive setup active right now, to verify this.
But a quick web search shows people using roundabout mechanisms to
determine the size of files in google drive, so this seems a likely
issue.

Thanks, I can duplicate this and will take a look. I can see files in g:
using dir in J, but cannot open them.
I have never used Google Drive Stream before so would appreciate any
suggestions as to what might be going wrong.

All,
I have several projects I am working on, and I frequently use different
machines to work on the same project. I want to keep the J code files
in a
cloud-based folder, so I can access the files from any device. However,
it
looks like he JQt editor has a bug that prevents it from accessing
cloud-based files.
I keep my files and folders in Google Drive Stream, which Google has
designed to work like a local G: drive on all my machines. With all my
other apps (Word, Acrobat, etc.) l can navigate to the G: drive file,
double-click the file, and the file will open in the application. Google
essentially proxies the cloud-based files on my local machines, so when
I
double-click on the file name, File Stream downloads the file, and
presents
it to the application to be opened.
However, when I use the J806 editor to navigate to the J code folder in
drive G:, I can open the folder, and double-click the .ijs file, but
NOTHING HAPPENS. The file won't load into the J interpreter. I have
tried
various machines (all Windows 10), and they all have the same problem.
Is there any way to fix this? Am I doing something wrong? Do I need to
set
a default path?
