hmm Ive heard the betas were out for DOS 7, and was hoping it would support
long filenames, but what do you mean 'in an undocumented way'?  I'm used to
unix and amiga long filenames.. and was hoping that under DOS 7 I could
mount some of my Amiga CDROMs full of Pd for my bbs.. any ideas if this'll
work or not?  Many thanks..
