I use both the DOS and OS/2 versions. The DOS version *can't* handle
long file names. Neither can any other DOS program dealing with an HPFS
volume.
The OS/2 version "sort of" supports long file names. It won't display
*all* of one more than about 20 odd characters long (at least I can't
make it do so). It will copy, move and delete them ok. It has trouble
with passing them to programs if they need to be enclosed in quotes.
If a volume is too big, both versions report nonsense for the drive
size. Copying/moving files to a volume can get an "insufficient space"
response. On my Netware Volumes, I can just retry and it usually goes
thru the second time.
