thatsflash,
In a DOS window, you can use dir /X to see the short name of the files in the listing.
If you are writing a batch script or need to use the path in a DOS command window, you can still use the long path if enclosed between two " symbols.
So you can for example execute in a DOS window:
| Code: |
cd "C:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server"
|
or
| Code: |
type "C:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\log\access.log"
