I ran across my problem by accident!  In the normal Sun distribution
of display fonts, they are divided into subdirectories: JIS1, JIS2,
PRESENTATION, etc.

When I wanted to copy the fonts from the Sun to my 1186, I ran across
the following anomally.  By the way, this concerns the "Medley sysout
of 19-Sep-88 17:45:52."  I could neither do a FileBrowser, DIR, or
copyfiles on the directory JIS1 which has exactly 192 entries!  If I
ran FileBrowser or DIR, recursively, from a parent directory, I would
get a list of the 192 entries.  For copyfiles I had to do the copying
piecemeal.  

A technical person from Rank Xerox France stated that this was an Unix
problem concerning large directories.  Unfortunately, I have managed
these functions on other directories larger than 192 (the largest yet
has 1097 entries).

Does anybody know of the problem or have a solution?  Is it fixed in
Medley 1.1 (which hasn't made it to Europe, yet ;-() ?
