Re: Function to normalize windows file name

[yyoncho]

Hi Eli,

The issue is the letter case because for one reason or another we often end up with file names being downcased. Apparently, file-truename is able to fix that issue(I was under the impression that it does not work that way). 

Thanks,

Ivan

I don't think I understand the request, since both file names you gave are identical except for the letter-case.

Is the issue the letter-case?  Or is it the backslashes instead of forward slashes?  Or something else?

Or maybe you could describe the actual issue you are trying to solve?
