Case-insensitive file systems

memory.
3.4.1.3

Addressing program memory files

A file in the program memory, which is addressed with a file handling command (e.g. WRITE,
DELETE, READ, ISFILE, FILEDATE, FILETIME, FILESIZE, FILESTAT, FILEINFO), is
referenced with an absolute path plus file names or only with the file names. In the second case,
the path of the selected program is used as file path.
