I will need to take my time in actually contributing to the BSL pages, which I hope to do soon. Certain things I don't even know yet, and will need to research before I can document them. But just now, looking at the overall structure of how the [[IGMD]] page is treated like a folder, with manplant and the other level folders as subpages... why don't we do that for IGMD itself? I mean, it really belongs as a subpage of [[GameDataFolder]]. And technically GDF belongs as a subpage of [[Oni (folder)]] or something. I'm not (just) being anal-retentive here, I think it would be useful if we faithfully recreated the hierarchy of the folder, so a user could navigate it as if he was in the actual Oni folder. Then we would easily find a place for documenting the files outside of GDF but inside Oni's folder, such as persist.dat. What do you think? --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 19:52, 18 March 2008 (CET) | I will need to take my time in actually contributing to the BSL pages, which I hope to do soon.

:I think that files like '''persist.dat''' and '''key_config.txt''' don't deserve a page of their own at present, at least not a stub that'd be there ''only'' because of that hierarchially-consistent idea. | |||
:There's really not so much to navigate there. And there'd be no "parallel" structures as in the case of [[Quotes]]. So I'd prefer [[IGMD]] and [[GameDataFolder]] to be direct hits, not redirects. | |||
:'''so a user could navigate it as if he was in the actual Oni folder''' Why would that be a good thing, and is that even true? The pages look nothing like a Finder/Explorer window anyway. | |||
:But heh, if you ''really'' think new pages like "Oni_(folder)/persist.dat", "Oni_(folder)/startup.txt", etc, will make the wiki a better place (for support or whatever) - just go ahead, be my guest. | |||
:"You know what would make this house a lot better? - No, what? - You should take out the stairs and put in an elevator. - Good. I'll file that with your idea for the moving sidewalk." ^_^ | |||
