DJGPP supports LFN automatically.  You don't need to do anything to get 
this support except (maybe) setting LFN=y in the environment.  After 
that, any file-oriented library function (like `open', `findfirst', 
`stat', `opendir' etc.) will automatically support long file names.

If you still have problems, please ask specific questions.  Posting short 
programs that don't seem to work together with the questions is the most 
effective way to get efficient help here.
