Re: DOSEMU/DOSBOX question

Wally, thanks very much for the explanation of the Dosemu truncation
style. If only understanding it would allow me to divine which file was which.

There *has* to be an algorithm being used to make the 8.3 filename. Why not
induce it from some "Mill's Methods" experiments: see what it makes out of
systematically varied long filenames. E.g.,


LongfilenameA
LongfilenameB
LongfilenameC

Longfile.nameA
Longfile.nameB

and any other variations you can think off.
