I think you are confusing 8.3 vs long file names.  When I 
refer to .LONGNAME, I mean the EA where the filename is 
stored when the user wants to use some otherwise illegal 
characters in a file name, such as "!".

 From what I've been able to find it looks like I will only 
be able to get the actual filename and not the .LONGNAME.

I think I'm going to miss EPM the most.   For me it is the 
perfect balance between power and usability in a text editor.

Of course IBM could release the source.
