Still not working on FreeDOS. :-(

Here is what I do:
1) Run DWED.EXE.
2) Type some random chars.
3) Press Shift+F2.
4) Enter: This is a test.txt

After pressing ENTER key, status line changes to "This is a test.txt", but after leaving DWED, I can only see SFN "THIS IS.TXT". (I use DN2 to see LFNs.)

Indeed.

You can access the command line in PSP using string(Ptr(PrefixSeg, $80)^)).

Maybe this unit helps you: http://www.retroarchive.org/swag/CMDLINE/0011.PAS.html (Didn't try.)
