This number includes all the files managed, in other words: active files, archive files, data exchange files as well as deleted files.

Max. length for a file name

255 characters

If a special character is detected (non-UTF-8), the name will be encoded with %MNGA182 then HEX of the source name and this will reduce the size of the name (the special character will take 4 characters space).

Max. combined length of both the file name and path name

4096 characters

This length matches the PATH_MAX that is supported by the operating system.

The Unicode representation of a character can occupy several bytes, so the maximum number of characters that comprises a path and file name can vary.

The actual limitations are the number of bytes in the path and file components:

1. which might correspond to an equal number of characters.

2. which is superseded by a maximum of 21845 characters
