Remove the dot `.` on the package name `Todo.txt Syntax` #23

On https://github.com/wbond/package_control_channel/pull/2524 (Test against package names containing periods) was determinate that Sublime Text 3 cannot support package names within dot on their names. Then all the packages with dot . on their names should either be renamed without the dot, or marked as Sublime Text 2 supported.

If after sometime, a pull request to package_control_channel removing the dot . on the package name is not sent, the package will be marked as supported by Sublime Text 2 only. Currently the package is marked as supported by all versions of Sublime Text.

Does Package Control support updating a package which changes its name?

evandrocoan commented 6 years ago

Sure. You just need to set the previous_names setting, and everybody who has installed your package will get their installed name renamed as soon as package control starts updating the packages. Example:

        {
            "name": "FoldFunctions",
            "previous_names": ["Fold Functions"],
            "details": "https://github.com/math2001/FoldFunctions",
            "releases": [
                {
                    "sublime_text": ">=3126",
                    "tags": true
                }
            ]
        },

As far as I can see, the limitation does not really affect SublimeTodoTxt as I don't have any Python code here. But for convenience, I'll submit a change request...

Thank you for telling me. :)
