Martin v. Löwis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> added the comment: On Windows, case-insensitivity is part of the API, not of the file system. NTFS itself is case-sensitive, and there are case-sensitive subsystems on top of it (e.g. the POSIX subsystem, Interix). Win32, when calling the file system, asks for case-insensitive lookup (which NTFS also supports efficiently).
I believe FAT is inherently case-insensitive. ---------- nosy: +loewis _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3485> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
