Thanks for all your hard work on this one Steve, I know there have been a lot of little niggles and quirks that you've been working out. I think Toucan continues to get better with every release.

Great app!

Case means upper and lower case, say if one file is called readme.txt and the other is ReadMe.txt.

The other is just displaying some columns better.
