If I am not mistaken I got two pull request for the same change from two different Github users. (Pull 6 and 7)
Which one should I use (and credit)?
In any cases, please add a unit test where both the old behaviour and the new behaviour is tested.

Then in the code, instead of going over all the keys of the hash with a regex, you could create another hash $self->{'syntaxes_map'} where the keys are the lower case keys from the $self->{'syntaxes'} and the values are the original values. Then the actual code would be just a lookup in the new hash. $self->{'syntaxes_map'} can be created once.

Use whoever gets the test case done first, first in best dressed.

A hash of lower case keys for another hash, that is always in memory, seems more expensive that a loop that only gets called if you are using the new behaviour.

[szabgab]

You can fill the extra hash the first time it it needed.

[ghost]

It only gets used once per session, so it's hanging around for the rest of your actions for no reason.

[szabgab]

ok, then don't us a temp hash but instead of the regex just compare the lc version of the two strings.

[szabgab]

thanks and sorry for the delay

HI, is it possible to do a new release with this patch? I'm trying to avoid carrying the patch on Windows :}
