It just occurred to me that as an infrequent command line user, that the dashes in names are intimidating because I have always thought that '-' is a special character for introducing a parameter. So that makes 'vc-7_1' look more complex than it may really be.
'-' isn't used in windows to introduce options, '/' is. Also, if they're not preceeded by a space ' ' then they aren't special.
Do most users ever see(or need be concerned with) what these parameters eventually expand to?
