$ python Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 15 2008, 22:57:26) [GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> from os.path import normcase >>> normcase ('aB') 'aB' >>> From http://docs.python.org/lib/module-os.path.html: "On Unix, this returns the path unchanged; on case-insensitive filesystems, it converts the path to lowercase." Of course, Mac OS X is both Unix and case-insensitive, which is a rather bizarre combination, but that's it is. Where is the item for "make all file systems case-sensitive, put the case-insensitivity in the user interface"?
