Thanks to all who replied to my question about long filenames.  Works
beautifully :)

Now my next question.  How can I get bash to recognize scripts? (i.e.:
run them when
I type in the file name).  The script in question is executable and even
shows three 'x's
in ls -la.  The only way I can get it to run the script is type 'bash
<scriptname>' from my
DOS prompt.

Also, this script does testing on the environment, compiler, and such
(it's a configure
script that create a Makefile).  But all the tests fail.  Is there an
environment variable
I need to set that will enable the script to access the libraries and
such?

Thanks in advance.
