''' what do i get in MSDOS v. 3.1 ? '''
well, you ought to get 224 filenames per directory. i believe MSDOS
v. 2ish gives you only 64 filenames in the FAT table with single-sided
media, and 112 files with double-sided.
i write programs which generate lots of data, so i run across these
things betwixt rainbows and ibm PCs or PS/2s. i haven't seen this DEC
specific MSDOS 3.ish, so i would like to verify from someone who has one
in their hot little hands. i have been using MSDOS 3ish in the other
machines, and it is nice to get the extra room in the FAT.
