   Thank you for the reply, DM.  I've looked at those various parts of the    
   code, but am not a .js developer and don't know what I'm seeing.  I do    
   see several references to "fname.tolowercase" in the '../exec/freqit.js    
   script and wonder if that is relevant.   
      
   At this point it doesn't matter so much to me, as it's working as long    
   as I keep the Magic names in lowercase in the config file.  I'm OK with    
   that, it just isn't intuitive and I thought it should work the other    
   way.   
      
   I'd still like to see somebody else test this and confirm what I'm    
   seeing, but...  ;-)
