maybe transport(er)? Because it describes only the movement from one place to another, regardless of the direction.

How about a stylisch Web2.0 name like IXPort ;P

I once named a class and the corresponding file “impex” which was stupid. It was always hard to find that file when looking for it in the file tree.

My advice: Make two classes and files. One for import and one for export.

well..

IMport, EXport. IM and EX show the direction. How about using two directional prefix: BIporter? :)

what about “io”

I’ve chosen “Exchange”.

“Gateway” springs to mind first, or for something maybe a little more – um, creative… how about “Customs” (as in airport security, allowing things in/out)? :-)

Not sure what it does – make it shorter: porter ;)

I like minde’s idea, biporter… it leans both ways ;)

Suggestions #1: Add support for base64 encoded hashes.

Suggestion #2: Also SHA1 hash plain text searches, in addition to MD5 hashing them.

Ian Boyd, I don’t think I would call it either of those things.
Transporter was my first and natural choice.

I say make it natural. Who knows, you could forget what you called it.

Or better, what are the transport methods? Is it a database thing? filesystem, network?? Maybe that could swing the name a bit.
