I have some files that have within the references to files that have more then 31 characters in them. They show something like this:

blah blah blah... #5475.jst

When the file is supposed to be something like:

blah blah blah to over 31 chars.jst

The application that made these files didn't support >31 chars in the file name.

How can you convert the short name to the long name? In other words, figure out what file the short name is referring to?
