As I recall, ls 4.0k has a switch to enable/disable case sensitivity, and is by default case sensitive (to more closely mimic the U*IX version). I can't recall the letter used for the switch, and I'm not on my Amiga right now, but the manual page for ls 4.0k is quite complete. As for the SKsh/Wshell question, is it possible that you are using SKsh's builtin ls when you are running that shell? That is the only explanation that comes to mind. + +Dick + kenny -- Ken Yarnall /// yarnall@cs.scarolina.EDU Math Department, USC \\\/// yarnall@ucseast.UUCP Columbia, S.C. 29208 \\\/ (803)777-6686 I want a T-shirt with a cow on it saying "Don't have a Bart, man."
