lister query <handle> namelength

This command gets the maximum length allowed for filenames in the lister.

 handle  is the handle of the lister in question.

The absolute minimum length is 30 characters which is also the default
length (and the current filename length limit of AmigaDOS).

Changing the length (with  lister set namelength ) will only be useful to
writers of  custom handlers . Note that the internal Opus commands, for
the most part, do not currently support filenames longer than 30
characters.

For example,
        + lister query 121132636 namelength
        > 30
