I'm looking for a case insensitive equality operator (something like
~~*). There are of course regular expression matches but I am
reluctent to use them because I need to preprocess my string before
using it (putting it between a ^ and a $, escaping special characters)
and because I'm afraid that the use of regular expressions will be
more resource demanding than a simple equality.
Any ideas ?
Cheers
