  Hello.

  In the Info-ZIP FAQ I find the following language:

" ...  if UnZip is compiled with the free djgpp 2.x compiler, it will
support long filenames under Windows 95 or short filenames under plain
DOS." 

  However, I just now compiled the `unzip' sources using djgpp-v2 in a
Windows 95 "DOS box" and the resulting unzip.exe _truncates_ long files
names that it finds in zip files.

  If the Info-ZIP FAQ is correct, how come the unzip.exe I just compiled
doesn't? 

  Eh?

  Bill
