Maximum characters in a directory listing

I'm running Apache server 1.3.33 on Darwin 7.9.0. We have directory listings
turned on, and when we use a browser to view the contents of a directory,
any characters beyond the 20th in a file or folder name get truncated and
"..>" get added in place of the remaining characters.
Is there a setting to increase the number of file/folder name characters
displayed in a file or folder name?

Many thanks...

Forgot about your 1.3, but looks just as applicable.

Not directly.
But you can provide your own script to generate these directory
listings, as follows :

DirectoryIndex /cgi-bin/index.pl

(e.g.)
In index.pl, you can do what you want.
