It is not yet showing up on CPAN, I will look again tomorrow evening.

It looks like I am finally close to starting to get the file spec 
handling in Perl up to speed with current VMS versions.


In File::Spec::VMS, would it be appropriate to use a syntax like below 
to switch VMS into case sensitive mode if the underlying version of VMS 
& Perl supported it?

case_tolerant=0

VMS, and a few others also need a method to set/indicate the status of 
case preserved.
