When it generates work file names it only uses one of the character positions to make each file name unique. This leads to problems with unprintable characters in the file names when a large number of files are queued in a single job (as with the Kermit distribution that we run here at okstate). I'm sure this is an old problem, could someone mail me the fix? Also, a list of other known problems and fixes would be nice.
