Howdy,

	I'm new to OS/2 and I'm trying to port an application from Unix to OS/2.  While using the NMAKE utility from the Developer's Toolkit, I got a warning
message on a filename that was longer than 8 characters in length.  Is there
an option/fix to resolve this ?  I was happy to note that the HP partition now
supports long filenames but looks like I still have to be constrained by 8-char
filename limits.  Doesnt't make much sense here.  I would be grateful if 
anyone out there has a solution to this.  Thanks for your kind attention.



Best regards,
