The error message " ⎕SE.Link.Create: File name case clash - try using caseCode←1:" is unhelpful to a newbie

Open dyaandys opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

On macOS I created foo, Foo and FOO, and then tried ]link.Create # ERRORS ENCOUNTERED: ⎕SE.Link.Create: File name case clash - try using caseCode←1: #.FOO #.Foo #.FOO #.foo

  1. Why does FOO appear twice ?
  2. I needed Morten to help me get to ]link.Create # -casecode .. I went via ]link.Create # -caseCode=1
  • Command Execution Failed: unknown modifier: "caseCode" ]link.Create # -casecode=1
  • Command Execution Failed: no value allowed for modifier

Can the error be more command line centric please ?
