TEXT:32,Euphoria supports Windows 95's long file name format when using open()
TEXT:16,on any existing file in any of the modes listed above. However, if you
TEXT:16,try to open a new file using modes "wb", "w", "ab", or "a" under
TEXT:16,Windows 95, the name of the new file will be truncated to DOS's 8.3
TEXT:16,format (an eight character filename, then a period, followed by a three
TEXT:16,character extension) if it is lengthy.
TEXT:32,The tutorial for the most part will use DOS's 8.3 format in fairness to
TEXT:16,all users with different operating systems, unless otherwise necessary.
