Now I work DOS only with a 486dx2 with Windows 3.11 installed.
Now LFN's used.

I want to use a machine I have access to--a Pentium with Windows 95, soon
to be
96 installed. There I want to work DOS only for DJGPP work and no LFN's (if
I can).

As far as programming goes I have no interest in Windows of any kind and
see no
point in long file names, but I will comply if I have to.

Unfortunately it looks like I will have to move up to Microsoft's Windows
95, 96, 97,
98, 99, 1900, 1901 and on and on.
