DOS, for one. Not sure about Amigas (haven't used one since '90). Most
(all?) unices, current versions and Windows and MacOS all support LFN, so I
was just curious :)

That's the point. *One* system. An a very old one which people seldom use
anymore (alone; I'm not talking about Windows dos prompt).

Apart from DOS, I could cite OpenVMS which has a 40.40 format.
Yes, only one dot is allowed. However, I have observed that most
persons who port Unix programs to VMS turn the eventual other
dots to underscores.
So VMS could have foobar_tri.inc instead of foobar.tri.inc.
Or all the POV-Ray archives could use foobar_tri.inc, and
nobody would be hurt.
