Online compiler crash

I need help with a few projects that I imported, and renamed them _imp_XXXX just to group and distinguish them from my projects. Now compiler crashes when I try to do anything with these projects:
![]()

I guess the problem is a starting underscore. I remember at least browsing few of them after importing, so there were no sign of trouble then. Maybe something got changed on the server recently that now makes it illegal. It would be best if admin can rename/remove leading underscore on all of them for me. Also, can import and rename code prevent from creating illegal names in the future?
Hi Ilya,
Thanks for the report. Yes, it shouldn't have allowed you to create the underscore filename in the first place, and now is upset that it it is finding one. We'll add this to our buglist for the next update.
