Ah right, I hadn't thought of the "open file" dialog. In this dialog, I don't see much/any harm in being inclusive and listing files case-insensitively. If there are three files: FoO.oDs FoO.ODs fOo.ODs the user will select one of those and we'll open the one he/she selected. For the case of CSV-like database files, it remains more tricky, because the user selects a *directory*, and we have to *automatically* consider files from that directory. Each file we consider is a table. So, if there are two files: foo.CSv and foo.cSV I don't see how to meaningfully decide which one should be table "foo". So I'd be inclined to be more strict there and (on a case-sensitive filesystem) take only files named "*.csv" case-sensitively. On a case-insensitive filesystem, we should not get stuck up on the name and match case-insensitively. As explained in the bug log, our check for case-sensitiveness of the filesystem is buggy... -- Lionel _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
