File_System_(XQP)_Changes

   The following Files-11 Extended QIO Processor (XQP) file system
   enhancements are offered under Extended File Specifications
   through the $QIO interface. Note that in some cases, XQP file
   format rules may differ from those that apply to other system
   services that accept file names, such as those provided by RMS.

   o  The current restrictions on the format and content of file
      names have been modified, specifically:

      -  The 39.39 file name length restriction was removed to allow
         longer file names, up to 236 8-bit characters or 117 16-bit
         characters

      -  The use of characters from the ISO Latin-1 multinational
         character set is supported in file specifications

      -  Support for the entry and storage of file and directory
         specifications in Unicode.
