The FAQ (http://www.ldraw.org/faq) shows uppercase syntax, e.g.:
<QUOTE-BEGIN>
Step meta-command.
Marks the end of a building step.
Line format:
0 STEP
This command will cause LDraw to stop until you press <enter>,
and it will cause LDraw to save the current image into a bitmap file
in the ldraw\bitmap directory. These two effects are controlled by
the -M command line option (see ldraw.doc for info on -M).
<QUOTE-END>
and I think we have always referenced meta commands in uppercase
in our discussions, e.g. FILE, COLOR, TRANSLATE, ROTATE,
SCALE, TRANSFORM, BFC, etc.
Tim Courtney asked for the "LDraw DAT format" the other day.
I think the FAQ is a good place for this, it just needs to be updated...

Fix what? I believe ldlite only accepts uppercase, and so does L3Input.cpp
