I think I have done the same thing, converted user input to upper case and compared with DEBUG, so this will always give the case insensitive comparison.
Now we can input debug in any case (Debug, DEBUG, debug..) and it will work fine..

And for achieving this I used Perl 'uc' function to compare upper-cased input.

! if (uc($ARGV[0]) eq 'DEBUG')
{
$bconf = "Debug";
}

Will it make any difference if I use 'lc' instead of 'uc' ?

Please correct me if I have missed something here..
