- I have never installed the LW-Pro disk myself. Is it archived? Perhaps you
- could use a common archiving format (Lha, lz etc.) and put the archives on a
- PC-DOS disk. This would make for more compatibility and make up for the loss
- of disk space. Actually, the filenames issue bothers me more than the
- physical format issue. I am just damn tired of 8.3 filenames. Recently
- installing LW 4.0 Intel just reminded me of that. Time to install Windows NT.
- Now - anybody know what the filename situation is on an NT formatted floppy?
-
- Bottom line is that the correct solution is to issue the floppy in both
- formats. That really is the proper way to provide cross-platform support.
- You say that is not possible though. That being the situation, you get
- to choose who to upset. Or rather, who you are not going to support(well -
- properly at least).
