The file names display in uppercase on the OpenVMS side and in mixed
case on the Mac side.  The only difference I've noticed is that Mac
file names containing spaces get changed;  the file name on MiaVX1
must be a continuous string.  For instance, if I have a file on my
Mac desktop named "Untitled Test Document," when I drag it onto my
mounted MiaVX1 volume and it gets copied into my account, OpenVMS
names it "Untitled_Test_Document.;1" replacing spaces with underline
characters.
