Debian Linux question

Is it my imagination, or did /bin/ls used to sort by case? Now it puts, for example, "README" down among the "r"s instead of before all lowercase filenames. When did this change? Is this a concession to Windows case-insensitivity or something?

You could try aliasing ls to 'env LC_COLLATE=POSIX ls'. Or whatever.
