For this you should use the variable FNCASE. Normally the DJGPP libc
functions convert all filenames, which have the same case for each
charcacter to lower case. But there are some very few situations, where
someone needs the exact case of the filenames. In such a situation
set FNCASE to y

SET FNCASE=y

and the libc functions return the filenames exactly as they are found.
