Subject: bug#32512: xref--read-identifier using etags backend should honor case-fold-search
Date: Fri, 24 Aug 2018 14:35:14 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <877ekg7xj1.fsf@ludovic-brenta.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87ftz48337.fsf@ludovic-brenta.org> (Ludovic Brenta's message of "Fri, 24 Aug 2018 12:35:08 +0200")

Also I would like to add that some programming languages, notably Ada
and Pascal, are case-insensitive; in these languages, "being as exact as
possible" implies respecting this case-inensitivity.  This is why I
think it would be a good idea to make the case sensitivity
user-controllable (not mode-controllable, as you may want to look for an
Ada subprogram from a buffer visiting e.g. a shell script).
