http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18292 Summary: Make 8.3 names for LFNs more "Windows-like" Product: Wine Version: 1.1.20 Platform: PC URL: http://source.winehq.org/source/dlls/kernel32/path.c OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: enhancement Priority: P2 Component: kernel32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: kennybobs(a)o2.co.uk When Windows creates 8.3 names for long file names, it does so in the form Progra~1 and increments the number by one with each new creation of a similar filename. So, Program Files --> Progra~1 Programmers --> Progra~2 Program Blah blah --> Progra~3 and so on. Under Wine, the 8.3 filenames seem somewhat random (PROG~HAE for example). Is it possible to implement this behaviour? It would make it easier to guess short path names, which makes it easier to add paths to the registry (when needed for workarounds, for example). -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
