I added a note on demo naming (pattern) to the first post.
How about also putting the first 3 letters of your alias at the end of the text file (if desired). I just find it annoying to see a bunch of similarly named demos without immediately visually knowing who made which (without opening each individual text file). So maybe an example would be:
p202-437.lmp
p202-437-ggg.txt
(both in a zip)
That way I'd assume the demo pattern whatever software would still work since the lmp is still named right, while the txt would give the benefit of easily seeing who made which demo (if the folder's sorted by name anyway).
Actually, since I remember its best to keep the lmp names 8 or fewer characters if possible whereas the txt length maybe doesn't matter, maybe the txt TITLE contain all the info with no need to actually write anything inside it (unless a comment is desired etc):
p202-437.lmp
p202-437-ggg-uvmax-complevel4-whateverElse.txt
As long as the txt also starts with p202-437, it should be alphabetized right after the respective lmp. I cut the lmps/txts out of the zip folders then paste into the respective p2 wad folder, and play w/ drag/drop.. which seems odd because I never bother to unzip/extract them, yet they still work.
