I have problems with the two info files info-stnd.info and textutils.info which have file names more than 8 characters long. When trying to read the info files trough the info standalone program, all is perfect if I start first info, then search into dir to find the files. However if I try e.g. info info-stnd info info-stnd.info or even the DOS name-numeric tail version info INFO-ST~2.INF (found through dir into a dos box which gives both long and short names) info complains it cannot find the file. if I type info cat which is within textutils.inf, it finds it (presumably through reading the file dir) but it cannot find the master file through info textutils Exactly the same occurs for infview. It is unable to find those files through infview textutils and even if I start infview and then try to load them through the menu Files/Open Info Files, they are seen in the scroll box but infview is unable to load them. I work in a W98 DOS Box with LFN=y (from DJGPP.ENV) with Name Numeric Tails Enabled (DJGPP is 2.03) Any hint ? -- Maurice Lombardi Laboratoire de Spectrometrie Physique, Universite Joseph Fourier de Grenoble, BP87 38402 Saint Martin d'Heres Cedex FRANCE Tel: 33 (0)4 76 51 47 51 Fax: 33 (0)4 76 51 45 44 mailto:Maurice DOT Lombardi AT ujf-grenoble DOT fr
