So there's a command for prec: "prec_tag" and I'm really curious what it does and how to use it. I've read the readme and prec_info print and I've tested but I can't figure it out.
Thanks :)

I'm not the original developer, but I decided I'd look thru the files to find an answer. Honestly, it's just related to naming your demo. Tag is a variable PREC will hold, and then assign to the filename. For instance, the file format for the saved demo in PREC is [date] [map] [redname] [bluname] [tag]. If you're just PREC saving demos, and played a snakewater game today at say 18:22, with your team called "jim" and the other team (BLU) called "john" the resulting file will be called "2-7-20161822-cp_snakewater_final1-jim-john.dem" or something. If you prior to playing, type into console "prec_tag ETF2Lw1" the resulting file becomes "2-7-20161822-cp_snakewater_final1-jim-john-ETF2Lw1.dem" and is thus easier to identify.

Thanks a lot, that's a pretty useful command to know.
