8.1 Long file names in Windows
VCG only uses the old MS-DOS "8+3" file names.  If, for example, your top-level
file is called LONG_MODULE_NAME.rsl then rsltc will save the vcg
input file as LONG_MODULE_NAME.vcg.  But when the VCG tool is
started it will display the error message "Cannot load file
LONG_MODULE_NAME.vcg".  This is easy to circumvent: use the
Load file command in the File menu and you will see
a file name like LONG_M~1.vcg, which you can select.  This
should be the one you need.  If you have created several module
dependency graphs in the same folder with module names with the same
first 5 characters, the results will only differ in the final
digit in the VCG menu.
