Re: [Filecaddy-general] Type Down and Case Sensitivity

[Tom W. <vis...@ea...>]

Bruce--

I use the "typedown" function in FileCaddy as well as many other Palm 
applications.  I found FileCaddy's implementation to be confusing at first 
because it was non-standard -- typically (i.e., in other Palm OS 
applications that I have used), typedown is implemented as 
case-insensitive, first letter only as opposed to FileCaddy's 
case-sensitive, "cumulative" approach.  When attempting to locate a file on 
my device, I do not necessarily know the case that the developer chose to use:
    *  most (but not all...) application names begin with an uppercase letter
    *  many PQAs begin with a lowercase letter
    *  system files and databases can begin with either upper- or lowercase
I was simply letting Dave and Matthew know that the change made for this 
release does not work as advertised...
