On Tiger, everything *usually* works fine, but on Panther there are
big problems with case-sensitivity. In particular, if I look inside
the app bundle using the Finder in Panther, I can see that some of
the resources have had their names and/or extensions randomly
capitalized. This is problematic because many of my GUI elements
are "skinned" and have TIFFs or PNGs as button images and
backgrounds. At runtime, the GUI elements are, of course, missing
from the screen!
NSBundle resource lookup is case-sensitive independent of
filesystem. I would suggest that if you want to deploy on FAT32, you
start with all-uppercase filenames, so that you do not have to worry
about the filesystem capitalizing them for you.
