UpperCase Question

Post by *DarkKnight »

When I create a directory with uppercase letters like e.g. "ST_TEST" the result I see is "St_test" although in DOS Mode I can see that everything is in uppercase! How can I tell TC to show me the real case? :?:

Configuration / Display / File Display - Show old 8.3 filenames lowercase - Try to uncheck it.

Not quite satisfactory

:) Hello !
• Right, but that doesn't do the trick fully…
- We had the same question recently on the French Forum
* In the outlines :
- That works only for short names, of course.
- I made several tests, under Win 98SE and under XP-Pro; I got the same result, even some short names i.e. "My-Ie" are not displayed as all uppercase.
- Many users -it seems- would like to get all dir-names as all uppercase, so I wished a special option to obtain that...

:mrgreen:  Kind regards,
Claude

I don't want all dir-names in uppercase!
I want them how I typed them ;-)

:) Hi !
• Well, but an option could be:
"Display dir file-names as typed"
* But isn't satisfactory for the names already existing, except renaming them to get the wished typing...

:) Hi
It was just only solution for DarkKnight's problem
• Not only for him. I'ld like to get the names as typed too.
* In an editor (Delphi5™), I've options to write some names & paths as "Windows' style", all lowercase or all uppercase.
* With the actual option, we can't really choose the writing-style for the dir.-names.
