IMHO there is one good reason to get long FNs: that is to offer access to
local HTML pages with long file names. Suppose for instance that you
bought a encyclopedia or some other multimedia title written in HTML. You
try to read it with Arachne, and... It would all work except for one
thing: the links use long file names and so they are invalid. I don't
care about LFNs in wwwman. But I'm more concerned invalid links in local
HTML files. Does that mean we'd have to recompile core.exe?

Thanks Bernie, that was very useful.
