What is the difference between the mapleaders and in Vim scripts?

Question

Wondering if there is a difference between

map <Leader>f x

and

map <leader>f x

in Vim scripts?

Why the variants?

There is no difference—it's just case-insensitive. This works too:

map <lEaDeR>f x

The documentation uses <Leader>, so it's probably best to do the same.

This would also explain that `` and `` produce the same result. :) – mt3 Dec 02 '11 at 16:40
