Because it's the Unix way! But seriously.. I mean, think of a
_logical_ reason why ShElLL.bMp and shelll.bmp should refer to the
same file - the main reason lose98 does that, is beacuase DOS _had_ no
capitalisation in its filenames. And as we all know, win98 is just a
GUI on top of DOS.
It's also very bad habits to shout in your filenames :)
