group alias bug
« on: December 01, 2005, 06:34 PM »
There's a bug in group aliases that converts $$N elements to all lowercase.  for most things windows that's not a problem, but in my case, trying to run putty via an alias with uppercase switches is not possible.

update: The regex test results in the config dialog show the correct results, it's just the main window and the executed command that get the case conversion.

This bug still effects the program as perlguy describes. This makes F&RR not so useful for running anything that requires a password off the command line such as: Putty, SFTP, SubVersion, and the MySQL admin console.

Apart from this bug, the program is awesome. Thanks in advance for any attention this post receives.
