Default Force Gal to be case sensitive?
Is it possible to force GAL to be case sensitive?

By that I mean if you define Bob, it will only pick up Bob and not bob as well.

Well no, its not essential, but it would be a handy option (for me anyhow).

For example, Im basicly using it as a glossary list on my website.
Theres common words in use that have a specific meaning in one context, but different when used in another.

It would be usefull to be able to prevent words out of context being linked.

I just realized that case sensitivity would be very helpful to me. Any developments on this front?

There is a new version of GAL in the pipeline (version 5) that will allow you to specify multiple regexp to use. When that comes out you can create a new or modify an existing regexp pattern to easily make it case sensitive.

Saying that... Im not 100% sure when it will be out. Its not toooo far away though

Thanks, no minor tweaks to the code that I can make right now to hold me over? I have a workaround for this problem right now so I can wait patiently.

That would be fine. I am using it as a keyword library. Much appreciated!
