large or small letters are not the same

Please write the code and the variables either in large letters or in small letters.
It is every time the same stupid thing.
Something doesnt work because the letters of an config file is written in small letters and will be called from a Programm or command but in large letters.
This only works for Windows but not for Linux.
XTAPE is not equal xtape for Linux.
Thanks, I hope the Devs will do this.

Its more todo with AI configs & Mods i believe in this case.
xtape used to be in lower case. And then was uppered case.
Damn windows users thinking A == a

Thats what I mean hollowsoul, but thats are the Problem which
the beginners have got to solve.
Therefore it would easier for All, when the Devs keep the rules clean.

While I'd normally agree with you, and NanoBlobs is set up in a mainly case-sensitive way, a lot of mods are converting from OTA materials, and case was usually ignored there, too.
Spring's code doesn't care if UPPERCASE or lowercase letters are used. In fact, it goes out of it's way to handle that correctly. In short... if you're having problems with this, you need to include the proper code to parse names, etc., not tell us that we can't use caps for certain things.

Most spring code is case insensitive. It is very well possible that this is a problem with an AI. Say what exactly you did and how you solved it and I can take a look.
