MAC address is case sensitive #95

This one is simple, but caused some issues until I figured it out. The ble-serial application does not work correctly when the alpha characters in the MAC address are passed in lower case.

Interesting, I just tested it on Linux and could not reproduce it: upper, lower and even mixed case all worked. Assume it is WinRT specific, will test it on Windows 10/11 later. You use Windows 7 and the same software versions you mentioned in #94, right?

Yes, same environment as the other issue.

Still unconfirmed on W10, with Python 3.8, 3.10 and 3.12 it all worked. Same package versions.

Actually W7 is unsupported by the bleak dependency:

Supports Windows 10, version 16299 (Fall Creators Update) or greater

Idk how this can function at all. Though I don't have a W7 test system at hand.

Well, it is just a minor annoyance. With full logging on I see a bunch of warnings about deprecated API usage that I believe comes from 'bleak'. I can only assume they haven't yet pulled it completely. Now I know never to update it!

I'll close the issue. Thanks again!
