Where can I find a list over third party unit/component name prefixes

Most third party component vendors uses a spesific prefix for their own unit names and component names.

Can I find any overview over these prefixes anywhere?

Eg 

gtUnitname = Gnostice
frxUnitname = FastReport
cxUnitName = Developer Express

Two reasons
1) Need to find the vendor of a unit
2) Want to use a unique prefix in own components

Solution

  • Since DPR is abandoned, and no other list seems to exist, I created a new one at http://delphi.wikia.com/wiki/Delphi_Wiki

    I just added some of the components I currently use and some of the prefixes that came to my mind.

    The Wayback Machine couldn't show the dpr site, so I didn't manage to copy these.

    If you have any prefixes you would like to add, please do so at:
