This is a bit of a silly question, but please bear with me. ;)

This is a bit of a silly question, but please bear with me. 😉

I just got the Code::Blocks IDE and I’m enjoying it thoroughly. However, since the : character isn’t allowed in Windows folder names, I’m unsure of what to call the folder I keep all my projects in. (I name each folder after its IDE.)

Should it be written as “Code Blocks,” “CodeBlocks,” or something else…?

    Let’s see what the people who are affiliated with the project calls it.

    • The official name is spelled “Code::Blocks”.
    • In the filenames in the Download section it’s spelled “codeblocks”.
    • In the page title of the Wiki it’s spelled “CodeBlocks”

    If you remove the “illegal” characters from the official names you get “CodeBlocks”.
    However, the :: indicates that they think something should separate “Code” and “Blocks”.

    According to this, and considering proper grammar, I think you should call it “Code Blocks”. Alternatively “Code Blocks IDE”.
