I'm fairly new to the UV world, and a coworker installed a trial version of UV and then had to have emergency surgery so the project was placed with me. I'm trying to sset up a uv database, but i can't seem to find or create a proper bp directory file for basic source code, and I can't type in lowercase at all, all myh input gets converted to uppercase. I've tried turning CASE off but it still converts. Can we default to a lowercase easily?

You can type PTERM NOCASE at the TCL prompt and it will turn off the automatic converting to uppercase.

Actually I meant tp say PTERM CASE NOINVERT. Sorry about that

I did figure most of it out, I set up a UV.LOGIN paragraph that handles this, some terminal settings, and the command.editor turned on.
