- Hi,
-
- at the moment the path and file name maximum is 128 characters. This should
- change in the future. I know someone who is writing a nfs for MiNT. The
- nfs standard says that the path can have upto 1024 chars and the file name
- upto 256 chars. This can be done by just changing the defines. My problem
- is now: how can a program get the bigest path and file name in the whole
- system? One solution would be to check on "u:" every directory for the
- path and file name size. This works so long as file systems can be mounted
- on "u:". But what will be if file systems can be mounted everywhere like
- on a sun?
