>Good idea.  Compile `_truename.c' with -DTEST, and you get your program.
Here is some output from a dir command (some of it scolled off), my new
testtrue.exe
program (truename.c compiled with -DTEST), gcc, and mkid.  Truename
definitely can see the
files, gcc and mkid don't.

Oh, good.  I thought because one of them said CCase, and the other \\view
that
it was a problem, but I was just guessing.

I think the above is representative, let me know if more should be tried.

It would be great if it were that easy :)
