Subject: Re: [WiX-users] Package/@Shortnames Thanks Rob, I not sure I am any wiser even after reading the MSI SDK!

Subject: [WiX-users] Package/@Shortnames Could someone let me know what the Package/@Shortnames attribute does or how it maps to an MSI property. The documentation says "Set to 'yes' to have short filenames in the source" but that doesn't really mean anything to me.
