Technical: On the Amiga you can use 30 characters for a file name. But on an
|

MS-DOS-compatible filesystem only 8 plus 3 characters are
|

available. Vim tries to detect the type of filesystem when it is
|
||||
creating the .swp file. If an MS-DOS-like filesystem is suspected,
|
||||
a flag is set that has the same effect as setting the 'shortname'
|
||||
option. This flag will be reset as soon as you start editing a
|
||||
new file. The flag will be used when making the file name for the
|
||||
".swp" and ".~" files for the current file. But when you are
|
||||
editing a file in a normal filesystem and write to an MS-DOS-like
|
||||
filesystem the flag will not have been set. In that case the
|
||||
creation of the ".~" file may fail and you will get an error
|

message. Use the 'shortname' option in this case.
