Hi Ronald!

Read Thing docs and bug the Thing author about it. Also put
somepressure on Thin author to finally put the Thing sources into cvs
:-)

Seriously:
Thing has a limit of 64 chars for the full filename, which is quite a
low and bad limit.

jinnee might do better here. But I think it also has a limit.
