dentro/onefile demo/intro/crack intro

what's the difference between dentro, onefile demo and intro?
i believe i know the difference between an intro and a crack intro but hundreds of crack intros are marked here as intros so i'm puzzled about it too.

I think that one-file prods should be divided only by size:

- 256B Intro
- 1kB Intro
- 4kB Intro
- 16kB Intro - I suppose that most regular intros are about this file size thus 16kB category would suit them perfectly ;)
- all above and up to 64kB - One-file Demo

Simple enough? :)

Quote: crack intro is the same as intro to me. Where else would you wanna put an intro? If it's in front of a demo, it becomes part of a dentro.

Hein was right, years ago: cracktros are a subset of intros, just like several other terrible (something)-tro types...like birthtros, for example.
Due to the fact that there are moooooore cracks than new groups per month, the term "cracktro" is much more around here.

Moreover, one distinctive fact about intros (like cracktros) should be highlighted comparing'em to onefiler in general: a someway lesser memory consumption is a valuable feature, in general. But this is fluffychatting, of course, you know... ;)

Actually, we called them intros (on cracks) long before the demo part of whatever scene (amiga? pc?) glommed onto the name and forced a separation.

PS - the c64 doesn't have cracktros - head over to amiga/pc for that term
