Currently there is no way in the code to have only the long or only the 
short names or to have the long name in the directory path. This should 
probably be updated when I do the Unicode upgrade where the FS_DENT 
structure will have the ASCII and Unicode names.  The long and short 
versions of the name can also exist.
