We've always had this naming scheme in the SHN community and have had no problems enforcing it. Here's the best format:
gd1979-12-09d1t01 Four digit year, with the year FIRST. One digit disc number. Two digit track number. It really really helps if everyone does this. I think the program should auto generate these names if possible, or at least auto generate a fileset name like gd1979-12-09 Jeremy ----- Original Message ----- From: WallyBEAR <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2001 6:03 AM Subject: Re: [Furthur] Naming songs so they play in order > I personally like the: gd09-12-79d1t1 etc. naming scheme > BUT enforcing this is not likely, or will be real tough, won't it? > > Another good feature in this area of the Program > is the ability to select and "add multiple files" to your Shared Fileset. > Just my 2cents. > > Guys, > > This is just a general question about the best way for the system to > > work.
