Yes, this would be a general and proper solution. But it would force
people to load yet another TSR and it would probably collide with
some other GEMDOS extension out there. But if spreaded with source code
and well documented it might become a nice GDIALOG, maybe.

Is it possible to write _easily_ a TSR for fixing GEMDOS in GCC? (I´ve
written the algorithm for fixing the filenames in C and I would be lazy
to rewrite it to asm). What are the general rules for writting TRAP
handlers and TSRs in GCC?
