Copy: why is the case not altered? abc > ABC

Post by *sexy69 »

In the left window, I have a file: test.txt, and in the right: Test.txt
test.txt | test.txt

Copy the test.txt -> Test.txt

should:
test.txt | test.txt
but in the right window is still the name with a capital letter:
test.txt | test.txt

When target file exists, it keeps its name case. And it is quite useful for me.
BTW Explorer does the same.

Set Fire to the Rain.mp3 | Set Fire To The Rain.mp3
Copy:
Set Fire to the Rain.mp3 -> Set Fire To The Rain.mp3
result: no change
Set Fire to the Rain.mp3 | Set Fire To The Rain.mp3

For me, not useful.

also see no difference:
cm_DirMatch
cm_FileSync
cm_CompareDirs
cm_CompareDirsWithSubdirs

Maybe it should be copying File(Left) -> File(Right):

If File(Left)=File(Right) and FileName(Left)<>FileName(Right) Then Rename FileName(Right)

I don't think so. Many users use this feature.

Already I made an application, which now does.
