Re: vDOS success... but no LFN



Hi Harry,

If you do a DIR of C: from the vDos-lfn command line (not from within XyWrite) and cannot see long file names, please make sure the line "Win95LFN=Yes"  is present in the file 4DOS.INI located in the same directory as vDos-lfn.exe. In this case both LFNs and SFNs will be listed with the DOS DIR command. If you still cannot see LFNs, could you please upload a screenshot of the DIR command so I can check it too? Thanks.

The only odd thing is that it's not using long file names! That is, when I
do a DIR of C:, I see progra~1 instead of Program Files.

Am I doing something wrong?
