Just a point to clarify terminology: there is a difference between
case-sensitive and case-preserving,
  UNIX is case-sensitive and case-preserving,
  VMS is neither (everything mapped to uppercase),
  AmigaDOS is not case-sensitive, but is case- preserving.
That is, on the Amiga a program given a name, e.g., FooBar, will keep that
combination of upper and lower case, but may be referred to with
any case combination (e.g., fOObAR).
