I am using Windows/NT SP4. My program works fine for short filenames
in Windows/NT DOS but not for LFNs. In the FAQ of DJGPP web site
there is a topic "Will it work under Windows/NT?" I noticed the
following:
"Note that long filename API ... for DOS box is not supported by current
version of Windows/NT, so you cannot have long filenames here
from DJGPP programs..."
So I cannot use DJGPP for long filenames in Windows NT?
Thanks,
