Do all programs need unique names?

I was noticing that when I try to have a program interact with another program, there is no path tree. I take this to mean that all my programs should have unique names throughout the program tree. So no naming a program "All On" and having a different version of this in each rooms program folder, at least not if I am trying to have other programs call this program. Am I thinking right here?

In my experience:

Yes, you need unique names to refer to another program. Otherwise the first named program in the tree runs.

 

If you are not calling a program they run when enabled no matter how many have the same name.

Thanks Rand,

 

I will keep the repeating names on the programs that are not called from other programs then. I like symmetry. Thanks for the quick reply, as I am working on this tonight.
