091001 - Follow up ref SDS 35 0000, ref SDS 32 0000.
091002 -
091003 - Accomplished one of the action items pending from the list on 000904.
091004 - ref SDS 29 1Y6K   Got Medit to create long filenames, but still
091005 - cannot open long filenames correctly.  Could not make progress on
091006 - memory issue.
091007 -

091009 -    setting out pending issues based on this record. ref SDS 40 0001

091408 -
091409 - Morris used documentation for Windows version of DOS, which he located
091410 - on 000904, ref SDS 29 0001, to add capability to Medit for creating
091411 - long string and lower case directories and filenames needed to fix the
091412 - problem encountered on 000810. ref SDS 21 EHG6
091413 -
091414 -  ..
091415 - It took about 10 minutes to write the code, then another 2 - 3 hours
091416 - were needed to debug the thing.  Finally got it to work on Morris'
091417 - computer running w98; but, it would not run under w2k on my computer.
091418 - Morris did initial diagnostics and found that w2k is returning an
091419 - Access Denied code.  He said this means that w2k is a different
091420 - operating system from w98, and so this feature will not run on w2k.
091421 -
091422 - He then got an idea and tried several solutions.
091423 -
091424 - About an hour later, he found a solution that enables Medit to address
091425 - long filenames in upper and lower case for both w98 and w2k.  Assume
091426 - it works as well for w95, although we did not test.
091427 -
091428 - Only had time to accomplish this one objective today.
091429 -
091430 -  ..
091431 - The improvement to Medit uses a new command Morris created....

091435 -
091436 -
091437 -    ...that supplements savx, ref OF 6 R47G, to save and create
091438 -    directories, filenames and extensions in upper and lower case, and
091439 -    with strings longer than 8 positions.
091440 -
091441 -  ..
091442 - Morris extended the length of the path and filename from 40 to 60
091443 - characters.
091444 -
091445 - Looks like we can create stuff, but still cannot open anything
091446 - over 40 characters long, and have the path and filename process
091447 - correctly.
091448 -
091449 -     Doesn't this come up in Morris' other Medit program?  Why arn't
091450 -     the DOS calls the same for both situations?
091451 -
091452 - In the course of the evening, I showed Morris the problem opening
091453 - files in the Internet transfer directory.  They now exceed 40
091454 - characters because we moved the stuff from i: drive, to c: and this
091455 - required several additional directory levels, that extend the lenght
091456 - of the path to about 40.  He noticed that Medit opens the long file,
091457 - and only shows 40 characters instead of 43 in the example we tried.
091458 -
091459 -  ..
091460 - We discussed this, and I thought it was fixed by Morris extending the
091461 - filename from 40 to 60 characters.  We were so pleased to finally get
091462 - this feature working, that we forgot to test the open file function.
091463 -
091464 - There may be another location in the Medit code that needs to be
091465 - adjusted to complete this enhancement.

120604 - Follow up ref SDS 31 I57O, ref SDS 2 9766.
120605 -
120606 - We finished about 2300, so there was no time to work on investigating
120607 - if we can somehow turn CGA off to get more memory for SDS, per the
120608 - record on 990912. ref SDS 2 9766
120609 -
120610 - On 000907 a letter to Morris asked if the new documentation he
120611 - obtained to improve Medit by accessing long filenames in upper and
120612 - lower case, per above, could, also, help solve the memory problem.
120613 - ref SDS 31 I57O
120614 -
120615 - Morris said he only obtained information on file management when he
120616 - downloaded DOS documentation on 000904. ref SDS 29 0001
120617 -
120618 -  ..
120619 - Morris did a few quick diagnostics at the DOS prompt, and announced it
120620 - showed that he does not have access to memory between 640K and 1MB.
120621 -
120622 -    Similar problems occurred creating the savc command, which seemed
120623 -    to block progress, then further effort yielded an eventual
120624 -    solution. ref SDS 0 FC5I
120625 -
120626 - Can more documentation also increase memory for SDS so users do not
120627 - get discouraged by system crashes at inopportune times?
