Project name should be reused often

Not sure if you prefer a bunch of threads with each specific suggestion separated, or a list in few threads.

When a user defines a project, there are many default names like Form1.xml, script1.lua, Form1 for the frame, etc.

It would be ideal if these start out as the name of their project. For instance GelloMod.toc would generate GelloMod.lua, GelloMod.xml (for a new XML), GelloModForm.xml (for a new Form), GelloModForm (for the parent frame). Any further forms or files added to the project could have a number added to the end: GelloModForm2, GelloModForm3, etc.

Thanks, the new version will implement this. I am not sure by what you mean by:

GelloModForm (for the parent frame).

Cool

For the parent frame, the object that has the name Form1 default. If two different people use the program and forget to change Form1 to something else, then their two mods will conflict.

Thanks
