TashTalk USB

Netatalk (and I presume Apple's AFP server) all mangle the longer AFP 3.x Unicode names down to 31 characters for AFP 2.x clients using some digits of the CNID value at the end to keep them unique and somewhat linked to the parent file.
 
I did see that, but I mistakenly thought that since Finder appeared to display longer ones OK that things were a little flexible. It turns out they very much are not haha. I play a bit loose with file IDs currently in that they’re ephemeral on each start. I think I was likely going to bolt some hash on the end, or just finally commit to making them persistent.
