Weird file names enherited from the NMSU student
(1/1)

Hi,
some years ago, a student hired by NMSU had a bad day and re-invented how files should be named at Hobbes.
It is no longer lua-5.4.8, but it is now Lua_5-4-8.
Surprisingly all adhered to the new commands - including me.
No longer !

It was not a student, it was me and it didn't took a "bad day", it took several "bad years" (sarcasm).
We discussed in this forum the Hobbes reorganization for some years. There was the problem that several drivers were called os2warp.zip, os2.zip and you have no idea what the file was about by reading it.
Long story short (with a lot of discussion) I documented the "Upload File Naming Convention - 100% optional From Martin Iturbide". I didn't came up with that kind of standard, I just saw it in some other files and took that one.
As it say, it is 100% optional. The important thing is to keep uploading new software to Hobbes.
