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.
