1. [DOS] WinNT Weirdness

(Should there be a space after [DOS]?)

Does anybody have a reliable file I/O system for use with NT? I'm having
problems with long filenames and am looking for a quick solution...
Otherwise, I'll have to rig something.

Thanks!

P.S. For instance, I've got some files written to a disk that I need a
EUPHORIA program to read. The filenames are 8+.3 (variable length), with NO
spaces. I think this may be causing some confusion somewhere. blink

Are you having problems reading files that you open or files that you're
creating?  Eu can't create long names in DOS, although I believe someone has
written some long filename utilities that are in the archives.  You might
take a look at what's there.

If you simply want to open them up, you could interanlly convert to the 8.3
style (with the ~1 convention).
