Neither Jeffrey nor Tony know which language we're using. Suspicious, no?

How do you want to use this ability? My demo script can tell the difference between "dog" and "DoG", but then what?

Sounds like a good use-case for password management, to name one example.

However if managing passwords outside of the home environment, I'd recommend hashing (where case sensitivity is already taken into account) and if used over the net, hardened/industry standard security (like what I've done in viewtopic.php?f=143&t=40479) is strongly recommended.

Having said that, the actual use-case here is unknown.
