xp, dir /x gives short and long filename, for files and

when working with files [notepad f.e.], short name is ok,
notepad however shows long name on title bar.
cd to short-named dir is also ok, cd performs, but, *prompt* is
damaged, it keeps to show short directory name!
prompt is standard, "$p$g". issuing new "prompt $p$g" doesn't
solve the promt problem.
is it possible to cd to short-named dir, but prompt to show
full, long name?
I know only of a 3rd-party tool.
