Choose a better program name

Currently "WinDirStat.Net" isn't the best naming choice. Typing the name in lowercase is equivalent to typing the URL of the real WinDirStat Homepage. This will end up sending the user there when trying to search from the URL bar of a browser. This name may also take away valid traffic from the real windirstat.net.

The new name should stick to these guidelines:

  • [ ] Be recognizable as a WinDirStat clone
  • [ ] Highlight the purpose/features/uniqueness of this clone
  • [ ] Be easily pronounced

Various name ideas

  • WinDirStatPF (simple w/ base name intact)
  • WinDirStatNet (easy way out)
  • WinDirSharp

Ideas based on altWinDirStat's name

  • netWinDirStat
  • dotWinDirStat

I like the last two (netWinDirStat; dotWinDirStat) & dislike WinDirStatNet.
