What?  Of course you did, when you let stand many times my assumption 
that you did it intentionally.

It's just more of that 'honesty and honorableness' you're crammed full of.

OK, your games get old but by all means please quote where I did as you say.

You will fail. 

Then declare yourself the "winner". But go for it.

Right, this is *his* game, not yours... no one saw that coming! LOL!

> but by all means please quote where I did as you say.

It's implicit, you know, the other issue you have along with context (both of which have been pointed out many times).

> You will fail. 

Not for people who can comprehend what they read.

> Then declare yourself the "winner". But go for it.

Whatever you say, "Chad Seymore"...


Snit: 
"Gee, I point out your actions... am very specific and give a current
and relevant example... and you just whine and name call.  Why not
"try to defend your actions, or, better yet, why don't you just stop
trolling and lying? Really - work on being honest like I am.  It
 would do you good."

ed:
"hey snit, since you seem to be giving much lip service to honesty and not
lying these days, would you like to go ahead and fess up to some of the lies
you've admitted to me in email, or perhaps you you won't mind me posting it
up?  how about it?  :D"

What Ebot got from your site as posted in the same thread:

-------
http://myweb.cableone.net/snit/csma/honor/

Honer and Honesty Code

The following people agree to treat each other with honor and honesty. 
This does not imply that they will always agree, but that in 
disagreements they will treat each other in ways that adhere to the 
mutually agreed upon code.

The code is:
     1     Be specific. Use the specific example of what it is you that 
is bothering you. Vague complaints are hard to agree on, especially in a 
forum like this.
     2      Don't generalize. Avoid words like "never" or "always." Such 
generalizations are usually inaccurate and will heighten tensions.
     3     Don't stockpile. Storing up lots of grievances over time is 
counterproductive. It's almost impossible to deal with numerous old 
problems for which interpretations may differ. Try to deal with problems 
as they arise.
     4     Agree to let the past go.


These people have agreed to this pact, and should be held accountable to 
treating each other based on the code.

"Honer"? 

Hmm, missed that before now. Was it done purposefully, so you could skirt out on a technicality? That actually wouldn't surprise me at all and you clearly know how to spell it (as shown in the URL). 

You need a new schtick, "Chad", h&h isn't working.

Again, I don't make accusations of your lying and dishonesty unless I 
have support:

================================================================================
10/24/2014

DFS to owl: "Face it: you were pwned by Snit.  You'll get him back one day."

Snit response: "He will? Unlikely..."
================================================================================
10/25/2014

DFS to owl: "And it's actually historic: you were completely pwned by 
Snit changing the case in just one letter."

Snit response: "He will never admit it."
================================================================================
2/14/2015:

DFS: "Snit literally changed the case of /one/ letter (o to O), and took
control of owl, who was insisting case-sensitivity in OSes is a good
thing, but recognized Snit's case-change because in the real world OwL
is case-insensitive.  pwnage by changing the case of one letter?!  Epic!"

Snit response: "Thank you. That was fun."
================================================================================
3/28/2015

DFS: "I had to go back and look at the original pwnage Snit made on you.

  Snit: "Poor Owl... he hates when I prove him wrong. Oh well."

  owl being pwned: "There's no "O" in my name."

  You recognized Owl as your name, whereas I didn't recognize Owl at all.

  Close but no cigar for you, hoss."

Snit response: "That was excellent."
================================================================================

Of course I win.  Nobody can lose by labeling you a liar, or 
sarcastically referring to you as 'honest and honorable'.

If you were truly honest, why did it take you 5 months to finally admit 
"Wish I could say it was fully on purpose."?

Feels good to tell the truth, eh?  You should try it more often.

Why did I finally admit to something I never denied? What? Whatever.

Your obsession with me is weird.

Mr. Ed? If you used a capital 'H' it would have been much more clear:

Neither does my NTFS volume on Win7-64bit.

Try to copy tree.txt to Tree.txt, and

Windows Explorer: "There is already a file with the same name in this 
location."

Does that mean Windows Explorer (explorer.exe) is 32-bit?  The file is 
found in C:\Windows.


Also fails in cmd windows: "The file cannot be copied onto itself."

cmd.exe is found in C:\Windows\System32, which holds 64-bit files on 
Win7-64  (cmd.exe is also found in C:\Windows\SysWOW64, which holds 
32-bit files on Win7-64).

When you run cmd in the Start box, it runs the [supposed] 64-bit version 
of cmd.exe (the one found in System32).

I didn't quote the whole page.  Here's  the rest:
<quote>
...
Other inconsistencies also exist. The Windows NT Command Prompt and
File Manager correctly display the names of the files. However, normal
commands, such as COPY, fail when you attempt to access one or more
filenames that differ only in case.

NTFS supports two slightly different modes of operation that can be
selected by the subsystem of the application interacting with NTFS. The
first is fully case sensitive and demands that file names supplied
by the application match the names stored on disk including case if
the file on disk is to be selected. The second mode of operation is
case preserving but not case sensitive. This means that applications
can select files on the disk even if the supplied name differs in case
from the name stored on the disk. Note that both modes preserve the case
used to create the files. The difference in behavior noted here applies
only when an application needs to locate an existing file. POSIX takes
advantage of the full case sensitive mode, while MS-DOS, WOW, and Win32
subsystems use the case insensitive mode.

Oh, and this KB article was written for NT 3.1.  So it's not a 32-bit
vs 64-bit thing.  NTFS has apparently been fully case-sensitive from
the get-go.

Screenshot of file list under Windows 7 (64-bit):

Windows lets me open both files, but they both contain "dfs."
The file that had that text has a later modification date.
That might determine which file is actually opened with the names.
It does not overwrite the other file, even though it also shows
"dfs" instead of "blah."
Later, booting back into linux, the original date is intact:

owl@thinkpad:~$ sudo -i
root@thinkpad:~# mount /dev/sda2 /win
root@thinkpad:~# cd /win/Users/owl/test
root@thinkpad:/win/Users/owl/test# ls -l
total 1
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 5 2015-03-28 13:45 foo.txt
-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 2015-03-28 13:45 FOO.txt
root@thinkpad:/win/Users/owl/test# cat foo.txt
blah
root@thinkpad:/win/Users/owl/test# cat FOO.txt
dfs
root@thinkpad:/win/Users/owl/test#

This is on a Server 2008 R2 Datacenter 64bit VM:

Utilities and SDK for SUA installed and configured.
checked custom installation.
checked to install everything.
In config options there was a checkbox to enable case-sensitive default.

This SUA is not available for WIn 7 pro.   Have to upgrade to ultimate
or use a server os.

cygwin should do the same, but that SUA case-sensitive default option
i believe sets a registry setting that you may have to set manually.
