Joliet CDs work!!

[marin]

Guys, I can't believe this, but it seems Joliet CDs (that is CDs burnt with windows long filenames) work on MacOS X flawlessly.

If you tried to read them on MacOS 9, all that you'd get was names like THISSUC~1.KSA, while the file names in MacOS X are nice long 255 character ones!

Yay, Mac OS X!

You can do that on OS 9, too.

Just go to http://www.tempel.org/joliet/ and get the plugin. Works fine for me.
