IDL V4 and Windows 95 [message #6078]

Hello,

I just upgraded from Windows 3.1 to Win 95 and I am having great
difficulty getting IDL to find some files/proceedures. It is pretty
apparent that IDL cannot handle long file names (at least on my system).
Has anyone else run into this and what can be done about it (short of
renaming all of programs to fit the 8.3 format). I notice that the DOS
names (8.3 names) now have the foobar~1.pro naming typical of long file
names under win 95.

A second question has to do with 16bit color. I seem to have no
control whatsoever over the colors used in plotting. This problem
remains when I switch back to 8 bit (265) colors. Again, am I missing
something here.

TIA 4 you help,
