Moreover, I don't like the filename translation policy of mkisofs. For example, when there are four files whose names are, foo-bar-foo-0.jpg foo-bar-foo-1.jpg foo-bar-foo-2.jpg foo-bar-foo-3.jpg mkisofs translates these names into, foo-bar-.jpg foo-bar-.000 foo-bar-.001 foo-bar-.002 But I think, foo-oo-0.jpg foo-oo-1.jpg foo-oo-2.jpg foo-oo-3.jpg is far better than the policy of mkisofs, because these names are suitable for filename-extention-sensitive system such as Windoze 3.x. -- HOSOKAWA, Tatsumi E-mail: hosokawa@mt.cs.keio.ac.jp WWW homepage: http://www.mt.cs.keio.ac.jp/person/hosokawa.html Department of Computer Science, Keio University, Yokohama, Japan
