Make qualifiers camel-case in MMSQUALIFIERS

[tesneddon]

The builtin variable MMSQUALIFIERS is automatically generated from the incoming command line. However, MMS uses camel-case qualifiers, where as MMK uses all upper case.

For example:

MMK: /SKIP_INTERMEDIATES
MMS: /Skip_Intermediates

This isn't a huge priority. However, it should be determined if compatibility should be retained for older versions of MMK.

[hb--]

I admit, I may not be current with the version of mmk. So, for whatever it is worth, IF you want to make mmk qualifier compatible (and /Extended_syntax doesn't look like a camel, or?):

Thank you for the input. Some of those issues have been resolved and merged into the master branch. /EXTENDED_SYNTAX has been corrected. Also, the /DESCRIPTION value has a default of ".MMS". It is no longer necessary to include the file type.

I will look at the other comments and see if they apply. At this point there are no plans to make MMK qualifier compatible, although it is a good idea. I am also currently investigating the whole lower/upper/mixed case issue.
