Okay, my first description of this bug was errouneous so I've deleted the thread and am re-reporting. Here goes:

DROD always appends the hold/level/room name to a demo, even if you tell it not to. In fact, if you don't delete the hold/level/room names from the prompt, it will still append them, causing the to appear twice.

For example: If you want to create a demo in the hold "demo test" in level "1" in the room "The Entrance", it will prompt you with the following name:

"Dt: 1: The Entrance"

If you just press enter, the demo ends up being named:

"Dt: 1: The Entrance: Dt: 1: The Entrance"

If you rename it to "demo1" the demo ends up being named:

"Dt: 1: The Entrance: Demo1"

I think that the hold/level/room names should be inserted into the default name in the prompt, but if I want to have a demo that doesn't mention them, they shouldn't be appended; and obviously, they should never be doubled.

Yuck, you're right. The fix will be in build 30.
