I'm a student and I'm trying stuff to get better aquainted with
the DOS/Windows interactions, character representation in general,
in addition to simply doing what the teacher is asking. He was
not very precise in his instuctions for the name validation, and
when I asked him he said he didn't find it important. This is not
a program that anyone is ever going to use, even not I. It's an
experiment.
