File Naming Recommendations
•
When copying LIF named files to a DOS formatted media, the file name is silently
truncated to 8 characters since DOS only allows 8-character file names. This could
result in ERROR 54 Duplicate File Name.
When storing or deleting files to a DOS formatted media, the file name is silently trun-
cated to 8 characters since DOS only allows 8-character file names. This could result in
ERROR 54 Duplicate File Name.
If switching between media types (DOS and LIF) or operating exclusively in DOS
the following naming conventions are recommended.
•
Ensure that only TESTS Subsystem procedure files begin with the letter p (upper or
lower case).
•
Ensure that only TESTS Subsystem library files begin with the letter l (upper or lower
case).
•
Ensure that only TESTS Subsystem code files begin with the letter c (upper or lower
case).
•
Ensure that only user-written NMT test files begin with the letter n (upper or lower
case).
•
Avoid using DOS file extensions.
If possible, only use file names of 7 characters or less for Save/Recall registers or TESTS
Subsystem files (prefix character + 7 characters = 8-character DOS file name limit). This
will avoid silent truncation of file names which leads to many of the problems discussed
under
