A UNIX system that is not case sensitive doesn't sound like a UNIX system to me.. I wonder what else Apple is going to change in UNIX, soon we'll be cd \etc\httpd
I apologize to the wonderful Perl people for thinking something naughty about them when all along it is Apple.
Thanks for the prompt answer.. I just moved the perl head elsewhere... But I'm sure that will break things..
BTW, does anyone recommend something different than HFS+ to avoid this very annoying thingy ?
Thanks Apple.

In the old days there was a problem with "head" and "HEAD". The perl installer was accustomed to a case sensitive file system which Apple's HFS+ is not.
I thought is was fixed but . . .
