I can deal with that, by writing a program that precedes assembly and
converts all non-comments to upper case into a temporary file for the
actual assembly.  It will be in effect a CASE IGNORE as opposed to a
CASE RESPECT interpretation of the source case.

How universally is Assembler H used, particularly in educational
instutitions who are a part of the HESC (which appears to include
Assembler H on its list)?
