This is no longer a problem now that you have DOG. Compile DOG on your local unix box, and then run it with the command line: DOG [filenames] DOG will create a file called !RENAME in the current directory and will rename all the specified files to have names that are unique to a dos machine. Now transport the files to your amiga, via the dog-box and type the line on your amiga: Execute !RENAME Now all your files are called what they were originally! If you want to un-DOG the files on a unix box instead, then type: /bin/csh !RENAME And the files will be returned. -- (c) 1991 Phil Kernick / Wizard Software This program is freely distributable as long as the above copyright message is left intact.
