    >>strcmp(); makes it alot easier to compare 2 strings

    Does strcmp() take into account the case difference?

    Yes, it sure does. If you dont want to compare strings and take case difference into account, use strcmpi().

    No, it's not a typo.

    strcmp() - Compares two strings. Case sensitive.
    strcmpi() - Compares two strings. Not case sensitive.

    Nope, some compilers use strcmpi, some use stricmp. Non standard functions are weird like that :-)
