Erich,

There are many OS9 programs that have case sensitive arguments. This is even
more prevalent with OSK, the "ls" command distributed with the MM/1 has
arguments that _must_ be specified as upper case. I know of several programs
for which arguments with the same letter mean totally different things as upper
or lower case.

I see that in this case :), Mark has elected to change Sterm to be case
insensitive, which, as the program author, is his choice.

Bill
