I keep seeing postings from experienced Cygwin developers that it is a nightmare to consider adding full case sensitivity to Cygwin. I also have Interix on my system, a (failed?) Microsoft attempt to introduce a gnu-based unix shell. Albeit is has limited tools, in fact it looks to me that it *does* respect true case sensitivity. For example, I have untarred directories that contain files/directories differing only by the case of the names, etc. If so, then why can't Interix provide a template for this feature?
