I wonder if this case sensitivity is causing string.h to be read
from g++ include directory. On win95 in g++ directory header
is named String.h and in normal include directory it's called string.h
Now if this is working well if I say 
#include <string.h> it should include the normal include file but it
doesn't it includes String.h from g++ directory...

Any comments

It seems that the cygnus file and shell utilities are case sensitive when
performing wildcard expansion, and aren't for an explicit file name.

For example, ls *.cpp will not show HELLO.CPP, but ls hello.cpp will
show it (as lower case).

For the utilities I have tried (grep, ls, cat), this seems to be true 
whether
run from cmd or bash.

Is there a way that I can turn off this case sensitivity?  It makes many of
the utilities MUCH less useful on FAT/NTFS/HPFS partitions which
preserve but ignore case.

Thanks,
Barry Roberts
