Method	Description
OpenReadOnly ( string fileName, long position ) : FileStream
ShortenPathname ( string pathname, int maxLength ) : string	Shortens a pathname for display purposes. Shortens a pathname by either removing consecutive components of a path and/or by removing characters from the end of the filename and replacing then with three elipses (...) In all cases, the root of the passed path will be preserved in it's entirety. If a UNC path is used or the pathname and maxLength are particularly short, the resulting path may be longer than maxLength. This method expects fully resolved pathnames to be passed to it. (Use Path.GetFullPath() to obtain this.)
