 From the strings of SplitForks in /Developer/Tools/SplitForks:

"File name is too long. The maximum length allowed is 29 characters"

Is this limitation real or is it just a legacy error string?


HFS+ file names are not limited to 31 characters. However I expect SplitForks works both on HFS+ volumes and plain old HFS volumes (where the file name is limited to 31 chars), hence the presence of that error message
