I see now that my text was misleading. I really meant 'SHORT DOS names' (ie. 8.3) instead of the full blown stuff. But of course, as cygnus.bat is interpreted by command.com (cmd.exe on NT), it does not really matter (but it is ugly...). Anyway, to give this message some useful contents: Happy New Year !
