People, I've noticed a minor problem with the current way
of naming/titling "petterned" parts.
Here's a brief excerpt from PARTS.LST
(sorted by Description):
3070.DAT Tile 1 x 1
2555.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Clip
3070DISP.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Computer Display Pattern
3070P06.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Red & Black Buttons Pattern
3069.DAT Tile 1 x 2
2412.DAT Tile 1 x 2 Grille
3069P101.DAT Tile 1 x 2 w/ SW Computer Pattern
45.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Ball
3069P05.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Black Grille Pattern
3069P25.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Computer Pattern
3069P30.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Controls Pattern
3069P09.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Danger Stripes pattern
2432.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Handle
3069P01.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Letter Pattern
3069P12.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Long Black Arrow Pattern
3069P07.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Long Red Arrow with White Border Pattern
3069P06.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Long Yellow Arrow with Black Border Pattern
3069P68.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Red & Yellow Controls Pattern
3069P15.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Short Red Arrow with Grey Border Pattern
3069P21.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Short Yellow Arrow Pattern
3069P13.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Short Yellow Arrow with Black Border Pattern
3069P52.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Telemetry Computer Pattern
Notice that the patterned parts are *not* directly after their
respective "master" part, but are often separated by one or two
other parts in between.
I propose that, instead of our usual convention of naming
a patterned part "Whatever with Blah-Blah-Blah pattern",
we instead name it "Whatever - Blah-Blah-Blah pattern".
This will result in the patterend parts being immediately
after their respective "master" part, as show below:
3070.DAT Tile 1 x 1
3070DISP.DAT Tile 1 x 1 - Computer Display Pattern
3070P06.DAT Tile 1 x 1 - Red & Black Buttons Pattern
2555.DAT Tile 1 x 1 with Clip
3069.DAT Tile 1 x 2
3069P05.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Black Grille Pattern
3069P25.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Computer (Red/Black Buttons) pattern
3069P30.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Controls pattern
3069P09.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Danger Stripes pattern
3069P01.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Letter Pattern
3069P12.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Long Black Arrow Pattern
3069P07.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Long Red Arrow with White Border Pattern
3069P06.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Long Yellow Arrow with Black Border Pattern
3069P68.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Red & Yellow Controls Pattern
3069P15.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Short Red Arrow with Grey Border Pattern
3069P21.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Short Yellow Arrow Pattern
3069P13.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Short Yellow Arrow with Black Border Pattern
3069P101.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - SW Computer pattern
3069P52.DAT Tile 1 x 2 - Telemetry Computer pattern
2412.DAT Tile 1 x 2 Grille
45.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Ball
2432.DAT Tile 1 x 2 with Handle
Thoughts?
Thanks,
Franklin
