lister set <handle> namelength <length>

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

 handle  is the handle of the lister in question.

 length  is the new length to set, in characters.

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

This command will only be useful for 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 set 121132636 namelength 256
