[Nek5000-users] file name size restriction

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

Hello all,

There appears to be a restriction on the length of directory/file names:

  Beginning session:
  /hpc_home/fmuldoo/engineering-marangoni-flows/sim2/sim1/sim1/sim7/AR-.66-RE-18

 
 timer accuracy:   0.0000000E+00 sec

 read .rea file
forrtl: No such file or directory
forrtl: severe (29): file not found, unit 9,
file /hpc_home/fmuldoo/engineering-marangoni-flows/sim2/sim1/sim1/sim7/AR-.66-RE-1800-PR-04.0-m-0-dt-2.8e-4-time-100.0-N-8-Intel/delet.re


As using long and descriptive names helps to recall what one did six
months ago or so, would it be possible to increase the name length
limit?

Cheers,
Frank
