[Cuis-dev] Bug report: File out/in of class with special chars in its name

[Juan Vuletich]

It is not just that...

Class names are to be understood by the compiler. With your example, I 
can not evaluate `ISW1-2do-Project new`.

Allowing this would require serious work on the compiler, affecting 
compatibility, etc. I don't think allowing these kinds of class names is 
worth it. Wouldn't #ISW1_2do_Project be a reasonable alternative?

Thanks,
