<![CDATA[
- If the \c CASE_SENSE_NAMES tag is set to \c NO then doxygen
- will only generate file names in lower-case letters. If set to
- \c YES, upper-case letters are also allowed. This is useful if you have
- classes or files whose names only differ in case and if your file system
- supports case sensitive file names. Windows (including Cygwin) and
- Mac users are advised to set this option to \c NO.
+ With \c CASE_SENSE_NAMES doxygen will be better able to match the
+ capabilities of the underlying file system.
+ In case the files system supports files whose name only differs in the
+ case used, the option must be set to \c YES to properly deal with such input files
+ if they appear in the input, whereas for file systems that are not case
+ sensitive the option should be be set to \c NO to properly deal with output files
+ for symbols that only differ in case, like two classes one named \c CLASS
+ and the other named \c Class and to support references to files without
+ having to specify the correct case.
+
+ On Windows (including Cygwin) and Mac users are advised to set this option to \c NO.
