Why are CDROM filenames all UPPERCASE with ;1 attached?

The filenames appear as UPPERCASE filenames with ;1 versions numbers in HP-UX. That's because HP-UX only supports ISO 9660 and does not translate the all UPPERCASE 8.3 character filenames to lowercase nor does it remove the ;version-numbers as they are stored in exactly this manner on the CDROM. These names, while perfectly acceptable to HP-UX as filenames (albeit a bit inconvenient since most shells see the ; as a command separator), can be a problematic for software not written to handle the CDROM native filename format.

Many other vendor offer switches to perform the lowercase and version number removal but HP-UX does not. More.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
