You accidentally wrote to the wrong list (this is the
developer discussion about code), but we do recognize the
problem. I've redirected it...
Windows **preserves case** but it does not **honor** case.
As far as it's concerned, aaa aaA, aAA, AAA and so on are all
the same file, but to confuse you it remembers what case you
used when you created it and displays that back to you.
In this case it first created aaa.txt, then overwrote it
with Aaa.txt, and shows it to you as aaa.txt.
Fun, wow!
