Good enough!
In the MS-DOS days using the 8.3 filename convention didn't seem like
much of a hardship. ProDOS and DOS 3.3 filenames are shorter than
Win32 filenames anyway, so what does it really matter and I am sure if
he writes a wrapper of some kind he can use some kind of renaming
strategy if he wishes, but I'll leave it to him to sort that out.
