gawk and long file name on MS W2K cmd line?

I'm using gawk in a batch file for MS Windows 2000 Professional. My
gawk version is 3.1.1. After running gawk, all the long directory
names become short names, ie, names with "~". How can I avoid this
conversion or change dirs back to long names?

Thank you very much in advance.

It sounds like you're running a 16-bit gawk. There are various 32-bit
versions floating around the net, so I suggest grabbing one of them.
