cAsE Recognition
I would like to know if it is possible for the <[]=[]> blocks to recognise the difference between uppercase and lowercase letters?
I have just tried it and it appears not. Could anyone advise me on another way of doing it?? (without hacking as I am planning an upload)

Re: cAsE Recognition
The only blocks that have case recognition are the two < and > blocks, so I imagine you could somehow make use of those to sense the case!

They aren't case sensitive either...
Try this:
[blocks]<say[ look at these ]for( 2 )secs>
<say[ [letter1] ]for( 1 )secs>
<say[ [letter2] ]for( 1 )secs>
<ask[ Were they the same? (true/false) ]>[/blocks]
That's the only thing I can think of, but you have to trust the user.

Re: cAsE Recognition
There is a way!
Make 1 list A-Z (Caps)
make another a-z (Lowercase)
and a final (special characters and numbers)
now use the <list | | contains | |> block to work out which list its under and then get the case!
You can now reach me on Twitter @johnnydean1_
