long path names


Hi,


Lets say, I have a path: c:\longchardir\evenlongerchardir

if I do now 'cd c:\longch~1\evenlo~1' in the bash, the prompt shows:
//c/longch~1/evenlo~1' $
I would like to have 
//c/longchardir/evenlongerchardir $

in my .bashrc I have 
export PS1='\h:\w \$ '
to show the path in the prompt.

is there a workaround ?

Thanks, Jan.
