| Can you add a qualifier/parameter to allow case-sensitive or
case-insensitive. One could be the default.

| If the SCSI spec allows for mixed case the program should
play it safe and do the same. It you wanted to be slick
you could always send the command as entered and if that
misses then quietly try with only uppercase. Even if the
TL810/20 series don't support mixed case something else
will. We've all seen that if it's in the spec somebody
will use it no matter how useless the feature is ("hey
that's cool, lets add it").

| While removing the mouse radio buttons in the GUI, I discovered
it would easier to change the RadioBox for them to a RowColumn
box to cut down on changes to the dialog formatting code. So,
I've added a hook for selecting between case sensitive and
case insentive volume tags. I think the best default is
case insensitive, but that will take a bit more work. For
now the toggle will be insensitive.
For the CLI and to get the user preference for the GUI we'll
add a logical/environment variable of some sort. If anyone
has a suggestion for a name, we'll take it.

| Well, the work for the GUI was easy enough that this feature
will be there. The logical/environment variable that gives
the default is MRU_CASE_SENSITIVE. It will set the initial
value for the application wide preferences, with the default
not being case sensitive. This applies to both Find and
the Cleaning cartridge prefix name.

| This is now fixed in the CLI as well. If the MRU_CASE_SENSITIVE
logical/environment variable is NOT set, the lower case characters
of the bar-code will be converted to upper case.
