  Handling Windows 95's Long Filenames with DCC 5.1
  -------------------------------------------------

  The long filenames invented with Windows 95 may be both
  displayed and used with DCC (e.g. when copying or editing files).

  The width of the filename column may be altered with the mouse
  by clicking and dragging the small bar next to the filename or
  may be manually entered into the "Display options" dialog.
  
  DCC will check whether long filenames are used by your operating
  system (so far, only Windows 95 is supported).

  If long filenames are supported by your system, the display of
  filenames in the file window will change correspondingely.

  Without the support for long filenames,
  the display will look like this:
  
  win      com
  progra~1 ext

  With long filename support:

  Win.com
  Program File.Ext

  If a drive does not support long filenames, DCC will use short
  filenames (8.3) automatically when copying files to that drive.
  
  DCC will recognize if a file with a long filename is referred to
  an external program as a parameter and will bracket the filename in
  quotation marks.
  

  Example :

  C:\DCC40>DBVIEW "My Adress database.dbf"_


  Due to the fact that most DOS-based programs do not support
  long filenames, it makes no sense to refer them as parameters.
  Therefore and in order to avoid problems, DCC will refer only the
  short filenames to the programs listed in DCC.INI or ARCHIV.INI.
  
  Only if the parameter %LONGNAME is added to the association,
  DCC will refer the long filenames. The parameter %LONGNAME will
  then be deleted and thus invisible for the external program.

  Example :

  [VIEW]
  DBF     =  C:\DCC40\DBVIEW.EXE !.! %LONGNAME

  If you are using archives which support long filenames, the option
  LONGNAMES has to be set to YES in the corresponding section of the
  ACHIVE.INI.
  

  The startup parameter /NL forces DCC to turn off any support for
  long filenames. The width of the filecolumnu will be set to
  12 characters automaically.

  All programs included in the DCC package support long filenames.
