#### 19.3.3 Naming your OmniHelp project

To specify a name (not a title) for your OmniHelp project:

    [OmniHelpOptions]
    ; ProjectName = name for OmniHelp project
    ProjectName=myproj

The default value is the base name of your DITA document. DITA2Go uses the value of ProjectName for the following purposes:

- generated-data-file base names: myproj.oh*
- project identifier, when OmniHelp projects are merged; see §19.12 Merging OmniHelp projects.
- project start-up file base name, by default prefixed with an underscore: _myproj.htm

To avoid a possible conflict with the name of another file in the same project, you might need to add a prefix, a suffix, or both. You can specify each of the following:

Project-name prefix

Project-name suffix

Project-name prefix

To specify a prefix for the project name:

    [OmniHelpOptions]
    ; OHProjFilePrefix = prefix for project file name so that it does not
    ;  conflict with the name of any file in the project
    OHProjFilePrefix=_

The default prefix is a single underscore. Although for most purposes you should avoid using any non-alphanumeric characters in file names, just about the only way to make the OmniHelp starting file visible among possibly thousands of HTML files is to force it to sort ahead of all the other files. Prefixing the name with an underscore accomplishes this objective. However, you can specify a different prefix.

Project-name suffix

To specify a suffix for the project name:

    [OmniHelpOptions]
    ; OHProjFileSuffix = suffix for project file name so that it does not
    ;  conflict with the name of any other file in the project
    OHProjFileSuffix=

The default is no suffix at all.
