    Detail:
      LanManFS now uses ,xxx type notation on long filename shares.
      Character mappings improved (necessary because Windows allows so
        many extra daft characters to appear in filenames) and one-to-many
        mappings for awkward charcacters in the RISC OS->DOS world have
        been added.
      Directory searching improved so that the wildcard matching can be
        done properly.  Only Microsoft could provide you an API call to
        discover information about a filename specified with wildcards and
        NOT tell you which filename it matched. :-/
      Things remaining unimplemented so far:
        Setting filetypes.
        Creating files with specific types
        Renaming.
      All those outstanding things relate to the work done by Attr_SetInfo
        which should be the final major piece of hacking required.
    Admin:
      Tested by connecting to a long filename share from both a RISC OS
        machine and a Windows NT machine.  All behaviour of the RISC OS
        machine has been verified against what the NT machine is seeing
        happening.  No surprises.  One-to-many character mappings are
        being matched correctly.
      Also tested using the Filer at the RISC OS end to navigate, run,
        and edit things on the remote share.
