Files in models directory ignored....

[Sundar]

Not sure if it is recorded in the documentation. But it took some time for me to figure out that the files in Models Directory that include - (hyphen) in their names are ignored by Web2py - and I do not see them in Appadmin either.

Not sure if some other characters (like hyphen) also cause this.

Version used: 2.12.3-Source Version  in Widows Platform

If the above fact is already recorded somewhere, apologies for this post.

This doesn't need to be documented because it is very unpythonic to use dashes in module names. You can't even import them as usual because the interpreter thinks you're using a minus you need to use __import__. Anyway, don't do it.

Got it. Thanks.
