Re: [sdcc-devel] strcmpi.[ch]

Borut,

You're right. And I knew about this option but I just did not think of it=
.
I'm currently not at one of my computers with svn installed so this will
have to wait a bit longer. I intend to keep the strcmpi and not switch to
those other functions just because it's so much simpler this way.

But I do hope that I've solved all the case sensitivity problems for the
z80 port now.

Greets,
Maarten
