Subject: Getting short name from long name?
4 Feb 1998 04:05:41 -0800 :
Message-ID: <16070.886592112.cygnus.gnu-win32@ps.ucl.ac.uk>
To: gnu-win32 AT cygnus DOT com

Is there any way I can get the short filename from a long filename using
gnu-win32 on Win95?

For example, using readdir() gives the long filename as part of the
returned struct dirent, but I also need to know its short version.

Is this possible?

Thanks

James Pearson
