Sorry, I don't think I can fix it except for reporting an error in the maximum
filename length case. Extension things etc. may stop working -
so I can't change the location of QD's internal workspace variables.
I'm not in a mood to look at the sources as my father died last night.

I have just used QD to examine a file with the longest possible name.
The name was actually
ram1_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz123456_wda. Although QD displayed the
contents of the file correctly, it did so with a purple coloured ink.
This ink was set for all other files read in provided the name was not
of maximum length. The file ram1_abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz12345_wda1
reset the colour to a rather fainter, almost unreadable, purple.
Is this a new feature of QD? Has anyone noticed this before?
Normally I avoid maximum length filenames but I repeated your experiment
on my QPC2 (in 16 bit colour mode) with QD (vB01) and an ASCII test file.
A maximum name with a 3 character extension produced 'dark grey' text, to
be precise, a black and white stipple type zero.
A maximum name with a 4 character extension produced 'pink' text, a red
and white stipple type 3.
Although the white may have been the light grey background my QD normally
uses.
Loading another file in the same QD kept the grey or pink colour intact.
The resulting colours may be depending on the QD configuration or your
theme setting.
Furthermore I could not load the file into QD with FileInfo2, which I
often use to look at any type of file, QD was started but the text was not
loaded and QD reported 'no name' so normal Load from QD was used instead.
It seems to be another QD feature because executing the text into
VIEW_FILE from FI2 worked OK.
Renaming the file to 35 characters made the FI2/QD combination behave
normal again.
Best wishes for a QLing 2012,
Bob
