Bug ID: 40924 Summary: Directory Structure first letter should be uppercase Product: Wine Version: 1.8.3 Hardware: x86 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: g@bonk.cc Distribution: ---
When windows installs on a PC the directories c:\Users and c:\Windows begin with an uppercase letter.
Yes, that windows ignores case but the Mac doesn't at the command line level. Please make Wine consistent with how windows behaves even though the case doesn't seem important.

--- Comment #2 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- It took me sometime to understand too. It is simple actually. When you create a prefix and then ls inside drive_c:
wine@Note:~/.wine/drive_c$ ls Program Files users windows
Note that users and windows don't have the first letter in uppercase. The expected output is:
wine@Note:~/.wine/drive_c$ ls Program Files Users Windows

--- Comment #3 from Nikolay Sivov bunglehead@gmail.com --- Yes, but why does it matter? What's a use case that breaks because of that, that's what I'm curious about.

Only thing I can think of would be case-sensitive partitions on Macs...

--- Comment #5 from Alexandre Julliard julliard@winehq.org --- Case-sensitive filesystems should work just fine. Have you found anything that breaks because of that?
