It is not a matter of difficulty. It's trivial. The Spice format requires it to be non-case-sensitive. "M" or "m" means milli. "Meg" means mega. "Mil" means to multiply by 25.4e-6 . As it stands now, parameter names (.param) are case sensitive, because this is part of the migration to Verilog format, which is case sensitive, and uses M for mega and m for milli. This will probably change, to case sensitive in Verilog mode, not-case-sensitive in Spice mode, because that is the "standard".
