Total Commander

Sorry, didn't guess how could this be named.
Just suggestion to name versions with ONLY numbers (e.g. not 7.57a but 7.57.1).
This one is suggested because "a" is very often used for "alfa" (as well as "b" and "ß" for "beta"), but not the bug-fix of previous version.
Please, append ".1" but not ".a".

I dont see the point as its standard to show small fixed versions with a in TCs History:
TotalCommander Version 5.51a HotFix.exe
TotalCommander Version 6.03a.Exe
TotalCommander Version 6.54a.exe
TotalCommander Version 6.55a.exe
TotalCommander Version 7.02a.exe
TotalCommander Version 7.56a.exe
etc

I understand that it's "normal" for TC, but it's the only util I've seen with such version count behavior.
As for me - nothing criminal, but I personally have seen/heard to much opinions that "a" (for TC) means "alfa" anyway so they will never use these versions. Sounds like sh**, but this it reality - some people don't understand real meaning of "a". That's why I suggest using ".1" - more understandable counter.
Btw, from version's format like "*.*.*.*" TC uses only first two sections, so it won't be against the rules. Even more, this would be better anyway.

Well, this is a suggestion. In the end Christian will decide.

Personally, I would not mind. After all, e.g. Firefox and Thunderbird have made it a (bad) habit to release e.g. version 10.0 first and 10.0.1 a few days later.

No, really, users might associate the letters "a" with "alpha version" and "b" with "beta version". So Christian might use "c" like "corrected version" or "completed version" instead or "d" like "dummy version"?

No, I'm getting absurd here. Using numbers like suggested by MaxX might be clearer and less ambiguous.

Sorry i find it completly absurd to say V7.5a means alpha and V7.5b means beta.
Please show me where this is used in that absurd way?

Using a simple term like v1.33a or v1.33b in google
http://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=de&q=v1.33a&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest
https://www.google.com/search?client=opera&rls=de&q=v1.33b&sourceid=opera&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&channel=suggest
shows clearly that its standard to not only use numbers but letters for versions too.

If you want to learn more about version numbering in software try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Version_number
and you will learn that you use in case of alpha, betas and rcs numbering like
7.11-a1 for alpha 1, 7.11-b2 for beta 2 and 7.11-rc for release candidate
