the index

-----------------------------------

Hi,
I am testing a user inputs.

say if they want to quit the current proc, they ahve to type in 'quit'

in my proc I have,


var userinput : string
get userinput

if index("quitQUIT", userinput) > 0 then 
      return
end if

but now, if the user types in 'qu' or 'q' it automattcally quits.
but if i just test again userinput = 'quit' , and they type in say QuIt then its not gonna work.

I was thinking of making a small function that makes that string into a small case string. that could solve things, but if theres a way to do it with index, please tell me.

      return
end if

And if you don't have it, then you can create your own version, or add this to your program:
function Lower (s : string) : string
    var res : string := ""
    for i : 1 .. length (s)
        if "A"
