I'm not sure what you mean.... As I understand it (it's been a fairly long time since I've used the more primitive versions of windows), the "short name" chosen for a long name is explicitly chosen to ensure it doesn't clash with any other short names. E.g., for the file "remember-diary.el", it might choose "rememb~1.el" as a short name. It sounds like either Martin has support for long names turned off, or cvs.exe was built in some bad way. -Miles -- `Cars give people wonderful freedom and increase their opportunities.
