>Description:
	/usr/bin/systat translates all keyboard capital letters to lowercase.
	This makes it impossible to do some things conveniently.  e.g.
		% systat n
	then do ``:ignore X11''.  Oops, that became ``:ignore x11'' which
	gives "x11: unknown host or port".


	Possibly the only bit of systat which needs to keep case is :netstat
	for its getservbyname().  (And when did we get :ps?)


>How-To-Repeat:
	see up.
