>BASIC.SYSTEM 1.4, which is part of the recently announced System Software >5.02, fixes this bug. Will B.S 1.4 display/allow the use of lowercase in filenames? That's one of the things I REALLY like about p8 1.8 now, and it seemed that B.S 1.3 didn't use it. >_ > _____ Jerry Kindall | ProLine: jerryk@pro-tcc > ||___|| 2612 Queensway Drive | Internet: jerryk@pro-tcc.cts.com > | o | Grove City, OH 43123 | UUCP: nosc!crash!pnet01!pro-tcc > |__O__| (614) 871-4399 | > (614) 875-7805 | GEnie: A2.JERRY ALPE: A2 Jerry > >This is a work of fiction.

It was only changed to not barf when it sees the bits in a subdirectory's directory entry that show GS/OS's ProDOS FST which characters are lowercase. See GS/OS Technical Note #8 for more information. -- --Dave Lyons, Apple Computer, Inc. | DAL Systems America--Apple Edition: DAVE.LYONS | P.O.
