Windows is "case preserving" which means that it does keep the proper names, but file access is insensitive. This means that it's really best to treat files as case sensitive and uses the proper names in code too, otherwise you risk code breaking when you switch to a case sensitive system... (And BTW, this exact same issue comes up with certain languages that try to hold onto case-insensitivity.) -- ((lambda (x) (x x)) (lambda (x) (x x))) Eli Barzilay: http://barzilay.org/ Maze is Life! ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
