The MSVC pentium II compile can be run on any windows machine as
far as I know. I have a PI 200 mmx and it runs with no problem.
In fact even though it is optimized for a PII I still realize a
little faster performance over the watcom compile of the program.
The standard Windows distribution is compiled with watcom PII
optimized so there is little difference.

OK, I didn't think that many people would be using it and I didn't mean
any offence.
However there's no reason to limit all other platforms to 8.3 filenames
anyway.
The proposal to use an #ifdef seems the best solution.
PoD.

I do for one, and my other box doesn't even have windoze installed.
I would accept Warp's suggestion though.

Yes, but which #ifdef proposal? I hope you are refering to the one
that uses #ifdef to modify the DOS version to create subdirectories,
and place sequentially numbered files into it.
There was another proposal that involved #ifdef and filename
truncation/mangling, without subdirectory creation. I don't like that
idea nearly as well.

I really don't care which one as long as I get long filenames here :)
