[gopher] Path length limitation

[JumpJet Mailbox <jumpjetinfo@yahoo.com>]

I thank Gerald for helping to uncover a Gopher Server limitation.  I do not know if this is a limitation for all Gopher 0 Servers or just the GopherS Server (gopher://home.jumpjet.info/11\Begin_Here\Servers\Windows_NT\GopherS), so for now I will just claim it as a GopherS limitation:
   
  == The maximum PATH length for a file name is 106 characters (the PATH is everything in the Gopher 0 URL that comes after the root "slash" character). == 
   
  This means you could have a file name in the servers root directory that was 106 characters long; or, if you put the same file in a directory called "X", then the file name could only be 104 characters long (106 minus the directory name "X" and the "slash character").
