So why isn't it the default on installation? Yes, I know it isn't your fault, Ray! LeRoy? Wally? Shouldn't the installer software set LONGNAMES ON unless the user specifically asks for it to be OFF?

There are so few UNIX variants now that require a file name to be limited to 14 characters. There are no negative implications (unless you'll miss the "file created with a truncated operating system name" messages!). LONGNAMES ON means that files can be created with names as long as the operating system permits. ------- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ The information contained in this Internet Email message is intended for the addressee only and may contain privileged information, but not necessarily the official views or opinions of the New Zealand Defence Force.
