1.8.3 FILE NAME
A file name must follow 8.3 format (= short filenames) — at most 8 characters for
filename, and at most three characters for filename extension. The following characters
are unacceptable: “ * + , : ; < = > ? | [ ]
 On 8200 Series, it can only display a filename of 1 ~ 8 characters (the null character
not included), and filename extension will be displayed if provided. If a file name
specified is longer than eight characters, it will be truncated to eight characters.
 Long filenames, at most 255 characters, are allowed when using 8200 equipped with
SD card as a mass storage device. For example, you may have a filename
“123456789.txt” created from your computer. However, when the same file is directly
accessed on 8200, the filename will be truncated to “123456~1.txt”.
 If a file name is specified other in ASCII characters, in order for 8200 to display it
correctly, you may need to download a matching font file to 8200 first.
 The file name is not case-sensitive.
