[PLUG] cd burning software (possibly the another newbie question)

[Eric Pratt]

I believe there is another CD filesystem that is used.  It is called
Joliet and it allows for long filenames, spaces, etc...  I think the ISO
standard for CDs is limited to the 8.3 filename standard.  I am not sure
what OS's can read the Joliet standard, but I do know that Win9x/NT/2k can
read it.  I am williang to bet Linux can read that as well.
