I fully appreciate that this one's a preference thing, but curious if there's general consensus, and if any technical gotchas one way or another.

(actually surprised search find anything)

Cheers.

if you use an underscore then the link will contain the underscore. with
link underlinging in various clients it is sometimes not obvious that
the name contains an underscore vs an unecnoded space.
So I would go with the hyphen approach.

But this is just my view. Above all I would say choose one and be
consistent in your installation(s).

Good point, if a standard has been set "no spaces" (which is good regardless), then that solves.
Thanks
