umm.  what kind of imports are not case-sensitive today?

>>> import strOP # builtin
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named strOP

>>> import stringIO # python
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
NameError: Case mismatch for module name stringIO
(filename C:\py152\lib\StringIO.py)

>>> import _Tkinter # binary extension
Traceback (innermost last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
NameError: Case mismatch for module name _Tkinter
(filename C:\py152\_tkinter.pyd)

Cheers /F
