Subject: Releasing long file anmes in .zip/.tar.gz?

Message-ID: <E18rCfr-0002vl-00@porton.narod.ru> (raw)
I'm going to release an Ada package (UniParser - a library for creating
grammar parsers). Gnat uses long filenames. What is the best solution
for release:
I work under Linux. Windows archivers do not accept ZIP files created
by Linux "zip" with long filenames (more than 8.3).
Should I:
- Release in .tar.gz (Hey, Windows users, are you all able to
extreact?)
- Use file names shortened to 8.3 (krunching)
- Any other solution?
