Hi all,

Am running Emacs 19.34 and Latex (Emtex) on a HP Omnibook (MS-DOS 5.0).

Now I want to use some Latex packages that contain long file names,
and thought the easiest solution would be to install a LFN driver.

Have tried DOSLFN and LFNDOS, and in both cases Emacs fails to run,
with no error message.

Initially I thought it was because of memory, but this does not seem
to be the case. Now I suspect it has to do with INT 21H, of which I
know very little.

Is there some solution to this problem? A work-around short of
changing all the file names manually?
