FWIW, Ultrix and DEC Unix call this "noversion", and Solaris has
something similer called "nomaplcase". "notrans" actually makes a bit of
sense for the option :)
mount(8cdfs)
noversion If a file recorded on an ISO 9660 formatted file system
contains a version string, strip off the ';#' extension.
Files and directory names are displayed in lowercase
letters and name matching is performed in a case-
insensitive manner. This option should be used in con-
junction with mounting a CD-ROM containing MS-DOS applica-
tions.
mount_hsfs(1M) Maintenance Commands mount_hsfs(1M)
nomaplcase
File names on High Sierra cdroms with no Rock
Ridge extensions present should be uppercase
characters only. By default, hsfs maps file
names read from a non-Rock Ridge disk to all
lowercase characters. nomaplcase turns off
this mapping. The exceptions for notraildot
discused above apply to nomaplcase.
