NAM

   The name (NAM) block provides additional fields for extended file
   specification use, including parsing and obtaining the actual
   file specification used for a file operation. On Alpha systems,
   the long name block (NAML) can optionally take the place of a NAM
   block (see NAML).

   The following table lists the symbolic offset, the size in bytes,
   and a brief description of each field.
