fP environment variables oddity

Being the sloppy typist that I am, I managed to mess up fP's config file
so that it contained:
wwnodf=on
JPVER=ON
lfCMARK=80
The effect was that filePro behaved exactly as it would if those entries
were set to:
PFNODF=on
PFVER=ON
PFCMARK=80
or
FPNODF=on
FPVER=ON
FPCMARK=80
I've only spent three minutes testing this phenomenon, but so far I've
found that ANY two characters could do -- why, even
#\ver=yes
will cause an fP binary to display its version!
