Why is ls doing this? Other commands, like vi, also show
this behavior:
$ touch foo
$ ls
foo
$ ls foo
foo
$ ls FoO
FoO
$ ls fo*
foo
$ ls Fo*
ls: Fo*: No such file or directory
$ bash --version
GNU bash, version 2.05b.0(2)-release (i686-pc-cygwin)
Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
Cygwin DLL version 1.3.12-2
I run Cygwin on Windows XP Professional.
Thanks,
Geoffrey
