You can use file name as filename.extension. File name in DOS can be maximum of 8 characters and extension is maximum of 3 characters. If you create any file having more character then it will automatically exclude the remaining characters. Say if you create dharmsansar then DOS will save it as dharmsa~..
The DOS (Disk Operating System) rule for file name length states that file names can be a maximum of 8 characters, followed by a 3-character file extension, commonly referred to as the 8.3 naming convention. This means that file names must be formatted as "filename.ext," where "filename" can consist of up to 8 characters, and "ext" can have up to 3 characters. This limitation applies to the older FAT (File Allocation Table) file systems commonly used in DOS environments.
No, "cheryl'stst" is not a valid DOS filename because DOS filenames cannot contain certain special characters, including the apostrophe ('). Additionally, DOS filenames are limited to a maximum of 8 characters for the name and 3 characters for the extension in the standard 8.3 format. Therefore, a filename like "cheryl'stst" would violate these rules.
There is no specific file extension for MS-DOS. Files can have any 3 character extension in MS-DOS.
