Thanks.

In case you are using Emacs 21.1 or later, the function
dos-8+3-filename (defined on dos-fns.el) will transform any arbitrary
file name to its 8+3 truncated version, so you could compare file
names if you need to make such decisions in the future.  That is,
given some Very-LongFile-Name.Long-Extension, type

  M-: (dos-8+3-filename Very-LongFile-Name.Long-Extension) RET

and the short variant will be printed in the echo area.

(This function is not defined in Unix versions of Emacs, so first you
will have to type "C-x C-e" with the cursor to the right of its
closing parenthesis, to get it defined.)
