Default Re: I want your mods!

Im only mentioning it because it might come up with a user who is still using Win95. You could tilde (~) each path and file name which breaks the 8 character limit. But that would break it in linux, and quite possibly MAC also.

Even though its been a close race over the last 2 years or so, I would now say that the people using Windows 95 number fewer than the people who are using Linux. So I would just ask if the people bringing it up are using Win95, and if they are then I guess I would shrug my shoulders and say "sorry". Or tell them that if they are determined to use Win95, and understand what I just explained, then they could fix their version just for their own use. Altho Im not sure if that would work.

Maybe someone else has a fix for this but I havent come up with one.
