(A reply to Os2prog, 1998, 2:440/4.10) On Tuesday 18-04-1995, Andrew Clegg wrote to John Poltorak about IFS: AC> Sony DADC Austria accepts the following referenced input AC> media for formatting according to: ISO-9660, High Sierra, AC> Apple HFS, and ISO-9660 with Rock Ridge Extensions.

AC> This is right off the top of my head, but I remember that High Sierra was the predecessor of the ISO9660 format standard (the two are very close), while RockRidge specifies how extension fields in the 9660 format are to be used to encode longer names, Unix file permissions, etc. It has always amazed me that IBM has failed to allow the OS/2 CDROM IFS to exploit at least the long file names, it's such an obvious enhancement! ___ X KWQ/2 1.2i X --- Maximus/2 2.02p1* Origin: Sol 3 * Toronto * V.32 * (905)858-8488 (1:259/414) SEEN-BY: 105/42 620/243 711/401 409 410 413 430 807 808 809 934 955 712/407 SEEN-BY: 712/515 628 704 713/888 800/1 7877/2809 @PATH: 259/414 400 99 250/702 3615/50 396/1 270/101 105/103 42 712/515 @PATH: 711/808 809 934 |
