README.Sys_V ===================================== Pre-Installation Note for Sys_V sites ===================================== If you have a version of System V with a 14-character limitation on the length of filenames, you may wish to begin by first extracting the directory ./bsdtar. It contains the source for a utility that will copy the first 12 characters of a filename, and replace the rest of the name with the string ``+0''. If such a filename, or directory-name, already exists, bsdtar will replace ``+0'' with ``+1'', etc. We thank Steve McConnel of the Summer Institute of Linguistics for this utility. Please know that while we have begun making efforts towards the use of shorter filenames, the distribution does not yet support them. The chief (although, admittedly, not sole) problem lies in the lengthy names of PostScript fonts. In TUGboat, vol. 11, no.4 (November 1990), pp. 517-20, Karl Berry has argued for a fontnaming scheme that will accommodate all operating systems that are currently able to run TeX. UNIX TeX is in favor of this scheme, and encourages all who write and maintain TeX and METAFONT utilities and driver programs to consider its use.
