Fix for long paths and filenames in Windows #35

Closed freddy2659 closed 4 years ago

Current solution is to shorten the filename to 100 chars + '.' + extension if the length is > 110.

@jonohein nice one to use the range input, thanks for that. if you can make a bit cleaner and explain then i will merge the PR or i will do it by my self.

if os.name == "nt" and len(filepath) > 250:
    filepath = u"\\\\?\\{}".format(filepath)

How's that? I've tested the change and it's working correctly
