$ python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Apr 15 2008, 22:57:26)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from os.path import normcase
>>> normcase ('aB')
'aB'

>From http://docs.python.org/lib/module-os.path.html: "On Unix, this
returns the path unchanged; on case-insensitive filesystems, it converts
the path to lowercase." Of course, Mac OS X is both Unix and
case-insensitive, which is a rather bizarre combination, but that's it
is. Where is the item for "make all file systems case-sensitive, put
the case-insensitivity in the user interface"?
