--- Comment #11 from Julien Nabet <serval2...@yahoo.fr> ---
Rereading this, I wonder why caring about case sensitiveness?
There are interesting parts in sc about detection, see
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/unoobj/scdetect.cxx#detect
and
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sc/source/ui/unoobj/scdetect.cxx#lcl_MayBeDBase
But since we tell LO we're going to deal with Dbase files why bothering about
it?
Indeed, if I create a file EXAMPLE.DBF on Windows. Then I put the file on usb
key and put in on Linux. LO Base with DBase option should just open the file.
Searching about DBase, it's been created on CP/M and about this one:
"The CPM CPP module converts commands into upper case before they are executed
which leads many to believe that the CPM file system is not case sensitive,
when in fact the CPM file system is case sensitive."
see http://www.shaels.net/index.php/cpm80-22-documents/using-cpm/3-file-names
(sorry I didn't find more official)
So "dbf" and "DBF" should be considered as a single option.
