   Case of .*LO files?   
   21 Jan 19 10:39:02   
   
    KW> According to http://ftsc.org/docs/frl-1034.001:   
      
    KW> Name of flow file is formed from network and node number   
    KW> of remote   
    KW> system, expressed as 4 hexadecimal digits each,   
    KW> zero-padded on the   
    KW> left. Thus information concerning to node 104/36 is   
    KW> stored in flow   
    KW> and control files with name "00680024" with dreites   
    KW> extension.   
    KW> Hexadecimal digits must be lower case if it is supported   
    KW> by OS file   
    KW> system.   
      
    KW> Is there a way to force Allfix to use lower-case   
    KW> characters in .*lo file names?   
      
   Because Allfix 5 was written for dos in the DOS days, it defaults everything   
   to uppercase. Even the original 6 code had that. THis is also one of the   
   things that v7 is changing is to see if the OS is case sensitive.   
      
   I know with the binkd verion I run, there are options in the config file that   
   will translate the case for me from upper to lower. I am not familure with   
   your program so Im not sure if there are options within there to allow for the   
   translation of filenames.
