Not sure if this is a known bug, but couldn't find it.

When recalling history by typing same command, capital letters are converted to small letters.

e.g. First run this command from slickrun: putty -P password
Go back to slickrun and start typing putty. slickrun will recall the command from history, but "-P" changes to "-p", which is not a valid option for putty.

Thank you!

Yes, this is a known and longstanding problem in SlickRun. The workaround, at the moment, is to create a MagicWord with the desired case, which avoids this limitation.
 
Fortunately, very few Windows command-line utilities are case-sensitive, although there are a handful, particularly when interacting with Unix utilities or URLs.
