Saving SmartDataObjects to Novell partition

DRAFT COPY - Currently under review and edit.

INTRODUCTION:
=============
Three files are created when a SmartDataObject is saved: .i
.w
_cl.w, where
_cl is automatically appended to the filename specified.

WHY YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS:
===========================

If the filename exceeds eight characters and the file is being saved
to a Novell partition that does not support long filenames, the
the following error will return:

Error: Unable to open file <name>_cl.w. Errno. = 2.


PROCEDURAL APPROACH
===================

If the SmartDataObject is to be saved to a Novell partition, one of
the following options MUST be exercised:

1. Name the SmartDataObject with only five characters, so that the
"_cl" brings it to eight characters.

2. Configure the Novell partition to support long filenames.
