Thanks for your response.
I tried adding the LFN macro however I still only have a short file name
created in the hard disk.
File:
#define __WATCOM_LFN__
#include <stdio.h>
void main(void)
{
FILE *fptr = fopen("e:\\aerosystems.txt", "w");
fprintf(fptr, "Genesys\n");
fclose(fptr);
} // END main()
Output:

Whether the DOSLFN driver is still visible in the DOS4GW environment?
Could anyone help to create a long file name using a simple C program in
FreeDOS?
Thanks,
Anand
