My computer is running Win95 and it supports long filenames.
However when I write DOS program using DJGPP under Win95 and I 
use the findfirst and findnext function supplied by DJGPP, the 
filenames of files found are always in 8.3 DOS format with the 
numeric tail.

Is there any way to get the true long filenames?
Thanks!
