RND, RnD or R&D?
Well... just a dumb question... how do you normally write Rocks'n'Diamonds?

I can nearly agree here (although the title screen still says "Rocks & Diamonds"). Especially "RND" is internally (in the code) both used for "random" (there's a function "RND()", which is the predictable random number generator for the main game engine) and also as a game engine abbreviation, together with BD, EM, SP, SB etc. But it still reminds me of the "random number" function of old BASIC days... :-)
If you ask for a "canonical" abbreviation, I would vote for (and always use) -- guess what?
> RnD is more better, what's more better is this...
> R'n'D... or not...
Exactly right! Although "R'n'D" is a bit harder to type, I see it as the "correct" abbreviation for "Rocks'n'Diamonds". :-)
But then, if we can identify it, it's OK, so it doesn't matter much... ;-)
