	Hi! 
	
	Try the following thing:
	
	1) Write any c code and call it xxxxxx.c (a filename with 6 letters plus
the .c extension).

	2) Compile it with -g option
	
	3) Debug a.out with edebug32 and you will see the c source lines mixed 
with the assembler. Very well for now...

	Now rename the .c file to any name with more than 6 letters plus the
.c extension, and repeat steps 2 and 3. What do you see? C source lines no
longer appear, only the line numbers! 

	It seems to me that edebug32 erroneously thinks that a MS-DOS file
name (plus extension) can only have 8 letters.

	I suppose it will happen to anybody, not only to me, so I think it's a
bug... a silly one, but...

	Any comments?
	
	Thanks.
	
	Toni
