Hi

I can't seem to get long filenames working on a WinNT machine.
I've fooled with the LFN environment variable (explictily ON & OFF)
both via autoexec.bat and in djgpp.env file but I can't seem to 
read (or write) long filenames with my friken NT machine!

The same code works fine (i.e. read / write long files) when I
compile it on a Win95 machine....

Not sure exactly what version of djgpp I'm running, but I got
it from the delorie site no more than a month ago.

What's the sham? 
Please help, as the old 8.3 game sux.

Thanks in advance,
   Ryan
