[2.06] Record/list variables used to be case sensitive
 
Using the untitled session,
#ADDKEY Case {DB=left|db=right};#SHOW @Case %db(@Case,"db")
Displays
DB=right right

#ADDITEM Case2 {left};#ADDITEM Case2 {LEFT};ADDITEM Case2 {Left};#SHOW @Case2
Displays
left

While it might be nice to not be case sensitive, I seem to recall a number of the help docs say it is. Also this may cause some compatibility issues for some scripts.

Please let us know if this is intentional so we know if the offending help documents need to be hunted down and corrected.

The offending help documents need to be corrected. Keys in CMUD are not supposed to be case sensitive. Someone can check zMUD too, but I thought keys were always case INsensitive there too. But if this is working differently than zMUD then let me know.

In zMud the record variable keys were case INsensitive, lists were case sensitive. I will have to check through the docs, but off the top of my head I think there were only 2 or 3 that mentioned case sensitivity.
