ADT long filename bug?
Hello all,
I recently received my SuperSerial card for my //e so I finally got a
chance to get some disk images over to my Apple and try ADT 2005 out. I set
it up, made my own null cable and transferred the ADT binary and ADT
CONFIGURE over, all went fine (the doc says somewhere that the file should
be saved as ADT CONFIG not CONFIGURE though, which I discovered later).
Everything works fine except the "long filename" support apparently. When
I type in a file longer than 8.3 characters ADT on my apple (receive mode)
it says it can't find the file and the ADT client on my PC, running windows
2K, hangs. Specifically the process goes to 100% cpu occupancy, so I need to
terminate it. To work around this problem, I simply rename the file to a
shorter name and transfer it without problems.
I use the 115K baud setting and have transferred 5 disk images without
problems. The directory listing also works fine with the long filenames. It
just fails when I try to receive an image with a long filename.
Not really a big deal, but just wanted to see if any others here had
encountered the same problem.
In any case, it's good to see my Apple //e (Euro) up and running like a
charm. Luckily I had kept a couple of boxes of 5.25" disks and the "DISK
MUNCHER" to double side them handy!
Happy new year to you all!
Luke
