Check Whether Long File Names Okay 

Keywords: 	 Long File Names  LFN  DiskVolInfo

Question:

Anyone know whether there's a command (or a series of commands) to determine whether a specific local or network drive will support "long" file names (as opposed to DOS "8.3" style names), when using FileRename and other relevant verbs?

See the DiskVolInfo function in WinBatch, Option 5.
