If I understand what you mean, this might work set the defualtfolder to justAbovethedirectoryToBeChecked get shell(ls myTest |grep `ls -d myTest` -) --myTest is the folder name and the filename if it is empty then answer information "They differ" else answer information "They match" end if
I don't have a mac to test on, and so don't know if ls is case sensitive on mac. Even if it isn't, I THINK it will work since it should return the actual case of the file and folder names at which point, grep is case sensitive so should work fine.
