As I understood it, "LONGNAMES ON" is a "once only" operation. So the problem should go away of its own accord over time (and yes, it's a bummer that the default is OFF - can't somebody at IBM "fix" it? I can't see any maintenance implications of a change!)
Secondly, we regularly share a dictionary among multiple files. Changing the default to delete discrepant DICTs by default would be disastrous! But this brings up *another* bug/feature in DELETE.FILE. If you tell it not to delete a discrepant dictionary, the DELETE.FILE fails :-( The PI version assumed - sensibly - that (a) your discrepant dictionary belonged to another file, and (b) you wanted the DELETE.FILE to complete successfully. So, having prompted you once, it had no qualms about prompting again and saying "the DATA or DICT delete failed, do you still want to delete the VOC entry". 99 times in 100 the answer was "Y"es. So UV forces me to type in a long command, instead of just prompting me for a Y/N :-(
