Just seems to be the normal convention to distinguish between them from non-Windows version, in the same way that Unix programs for X are x<something>. Filenames are just textual labels, so if they tell us more about the file it's a bonus! It was confusing having an EXE with the same name for the Win32 version, and which also meant I couldn't have them both in the same directory to share ROMs etc. I first called it SC32.EXE (option c, but avoiding long filename!) but later changed it to WinCoupe.exe (option a!) as that's what other people were calling it. The nickname and filename have just stuck as that. As a side-effect it also means that SAM programs that say 'this doesn't run on SimCoupe' are still correct, even tho they do :-) > So I preffer "SimCoupe for Win32". That's fine... Call it Squiggle if you like - anything that makes it easy to know which version is being referred to for problems/praise etc.! Si
