Sketch folders and files

The sketch root folder name and code file names must start with a basic letter (A-Z or a-z) or number (0-9), followed by basic letters, numbers, underscores (_), dots (.) and dashes (-). The maximum length is 63 characters.

Support for names starting with a number was added in Arduino IDE 1.8.4.
