That's one of the few bits of Win95-Edit emulation I haven't had chance to
add yet. :-S

IIRC, there's quite a bit of code in EE hardwired to 8.3 filenames, such as
the filename 'guessing' algorithms ('ee guppy' will check through all known
extensions to find a match for guppy, starting with the Euphoria
extensions: guppy.e, guppy.ex, etc.), and the wildcard matching handling.

It's probably not too much work, since I got SPLIT working with long
filenames quite quickly, but EE hasn't really been on my agenda since I got
a job. blink

I might have chance to grab a look over the coming weekend, since I've got
a few more Euphoria ideas I want to try out.

Sorry,
Carl
