[mkgmap-dev] index option

Sat Nov 13 10:10:20 GMT 2021

Hi Gerd,
that map is not using --lower-case.
But i have one other map generated with --lower-case, i did remove that map 
(with --lower-case) but it did not impact any search on the maps that were 
generated without --lower-case.

Regards
Karl.
