In Note Names - change spaces to underscore

How could Trunk be improved?

In Note Names - change spaces to underscore

Postby Knightnet » Fri Jun 17, 2011 8:40 am

Hi again,

I would be great to change note names so that spaces in names became underscore characters instead of just deleting them which often makes a mess of the title. I'm so used to using applications that allow extended characters in titles and file names and I really can't see why this would be a problem. After all, underscore is a valid character in any filing system.

Cheers again, Julian.

This would make things very readable for me as well. I understand the WikiWords theme and concept running throughout the app, but with extended titles, ItCanQuicklyGetPrettyOddLookingAndAtTimesInappropriate.

I take it the main reason it's like it is now is for easier linking within pages. A happy medium might be to automatically consider spaces as '_' characters when making links such as [[This One with a Title that's Somewhat Long]]. So it's appear as This_One_with_a_Title_that's_Somewhat_Long in the name, but the link would still work if written in the way above.

Admittedly, I do see the difficulty in it.
