All class, function and variable names will reflect a balance between
clarity and convenience, with clarity having priorty. Idiomatic
abbreviations, acronyms and contractions are discouraged.
Names for classes, structures, and enumerated types shall begin with
an uppercase letter. Identifers which consist of more than one word
(a recommended practice) shall use uppercase at the beginning of each
new word (``GoodClassName''). Local variables, class data members,
class member functions, and global functions names shall begin with
lowercase letters (``goodVarName, goodFunctionName''). Class data
members shall have names prepended by its, or postpended with _p
(``itsCount, blockPointer_p'').
Note: Glish function names follow a different policy: they shall
use lower case letters exclusively.
