 (please reply also to me directly : "Reply all", thanks)

  I experienced that programs compiled with V2 version of DJGPP with
LFN=Y understand long file names with any Win9x or WinEM, event when
transported as the executable only (i.e. withour repompiling on the
target compurer/system).

  I know that there is an alternate solution for Win NT, but this
requires something ON the NT system, which I have no access to, since
not mine.

  Question: if a DJGPP program was compiled with LFN=Y under
Win9x/WinME, will it recognise long files names under Win2K, resp. Win
XP? If not directly, is there a patching program which could be send
together with the executable so that it works under Win2K/XP, WITHOUT
making any recompilation on that target system (where DJGPP is NOT
installed)?

 Thanks a lot.
