[MiNT] minix filesystem

["Miro Kropacek" <miro.kropacek@gmail.com>]

hi,

for some reason i'm forced to use lattice c compiler. everything is good except the one thing -- i need to use long filenames (renaming to 8+3 is definitely not an option). it has to be said, lattice c supports long names much better than devpac on ext2fs but there are two problems:

1. object files are created with ".o" extensions but LC is looking for ".O"

2. output file path is completely uppercased (i.e. if it's /root/test/test.prg, LC fails with message "can't find /ROOT/TEST/TEST.PRG path") -- but this is minor thing since I can't use some TOS partition as output path.

The problem is that 1) -- I need case insensitive filesystem but with support for long names. Evil/DHS made nice article in Alive diskmag about using MinixFS for Devpac -- since it was made for keeping some backward compatibility with dirty apps like devpac.. I can't test it now, but please, could someone comment this? Is it possible to activate case insensitivity for minixfs?

Thanks for any hints.
