I also use readable names for all folders/files. For example, for my main math app, my folder hierarchy is: Instant Interactive > Math Series > Drills Such a hierarchy is duplicated in various places as needed (e.g. Documents, Preferences, etc.) Along with being readable, all my customers can easily back up everything from my company (since all files ultimate resides in that "Instant Interactive" folder). Or, they can choose individual nested folders in case they have different backup rules for each app (or series of apps). -- Rick Sharp Instant Interactive(tm) _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
