 ML> Can anyone tell me what the term LONGNAMES in the module 

it was for TOOLKIT 1.x and OS/2 1.x. there is NO REASON for still using it.
it is IGNORED by the linker.

OS/2 1.3 toolkit:

Topic:  NAME Statement

     Syntax:  NAME [appname] [apptype] [NEWFILES]

....

     Specify NEWFILES to tell the operating system that the application
     supports long filenames and extended file attributes, available
     under HPFS (high-performanance file system). The synonym LONGNAMES
     is supported for compatibility.


search the online TOOLS reference for NEWFILES. 

 WARPED!, Mario
