It took me a long time to figure out why I couldn't get the "Visual Studio 12" config working... I hadn't installed VS 2013 preview on my machine, and intended to build a project for VS 2012. There must have been some debate about this already. When showing a name in a GUI, it's probably best to use the commercial name and the name everyone refers too. Alternatively, an ok middle ground solution would be to call it Visual Studio 2012 (VS11). it took me half an hour of internet searches to find someone pointed out that the names were confusing and that Visual Studio 11 was what I wanted.
