I can maybe see the case of the second one, but the first one doesn't make sense to me. We've in the past had discussions like this about whether command line arguments of tools should be case insensitive like SQL, and we had resolved that since the shell is not SQL, it shouldn't work like that. pg_hba.conf is also not SQL, and neither, for that matter, is pg_ident.conf and postgresql.conf. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
