OpenVMS utilities and commands that offer full support for ODS-5
    have been specifically modified to take advantage of all the
    features of extended file naming. These utilities and commands
    should accept and handle extended file specifications without
    error and without modifying their expected case.

    In addition, OpenVMS commands and utilities that fully support
    Extended File Specifications can accept and produce long file
    specifications that exceed the traditional 255-byte limit in
    their original form-without requiring them to be abbreviated in
    Directory ID (DID) or File ID (FID) format.
