TomTom Settlement Aftermath: Get the FAT Out (Groklaw)TomTom Settlement Aftermath: Get the FAT Out (Groklaw)Posted Apr 3, 2009 3:06 UTC (Fri) by jamesh (guest, #1159)In reply to: TomTom Settlement Aftermath: Get the FAT Out (Groklaw) by pbrutsch Parent article: TomTom Settlement Aftermath: Get the FAT Out (Groklaw)
Microsoft implemented long filename support before FAT32, and I don't believe it significantly changed with the move to FAT32.
As for a replacement for FAT, there is movement towards the exFAT file system for e.g. the successor to SDHC cards. It doesn't provide a combined long/short file name namespace, but I'm sure Microsoft has other patents on that format :(
