Re^2: use seems to be case INSENSITIVE!!

That being said, I am on a Mac. (OS X)

$perl 
print $^O . "\n";
darwin
[download]

I would've thought that it would be case sensitive (it claims to be BSD based).

Mac is case insensitive, despite its BSD heritage. Takes two seconds to test...	[reply]

It is case insensitive by default, but you can't guarantee that every volume mounted on a Mac is case insensitive. Use `diskutil` to see if a volume is case-sensitive or not: `$ uname Darwin $ diskutil info disk0s2 \| grep 'File System' File System: Journaled HFS+ $ diskutil info disk1s2 \| grep 'File System' File System: Case-sensitive Journaled HFS+` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
