[Oberon] File naming again.

[peter at easthope.ca]

Hello all,

Martin Reiser published a syntax for file names.  Quoted here.

More discussion here.

Near the bottom, HyperGaruda advised against inclusion of a period
except to separate a name extension. Obviously inconsistent with the
Reiser syntax.

I miss the point.  Is there harm from a period additional to the
extension separator?

Thx,                          ... P.L.
