Some people are under the impression that filename formats in monticello
are not very well defined. This is definitely not the case.
There is, and has been for a while, a spec for the filename formats
together with a test suite for their parsing.
So if you want to be backwards, or forwards compatible, it is not
advisable to just start using any old scheme for your mcz filenames.
For example you cannot use $- in your authors initials or version
numbers, you can however use a space if you want to use full names for
some reason.
just to let folks know, since I am trying to bring some coherence to the
melting pot that many seem intent on stirring wildly
best regards
Keith
