Can we now consider the following prefixes for registers as the suggested method to name them:
\newcount: \c_… \newdimen: \d_… \newskip: \s_… \newbox: \b_… \newtoks: \t_…
I also use \c for constants and conditionals (as they are in fact also numbers). I use \m_ for temporary macros and \p_ for expanded parameters (not yet consistently). So we get: %D Conventions: %D %D \starttyping %D \newcount \c_class_whatever %D \newconditional \c_class_whatever %D \newconstant \c_class_whatever %D \newdimen \d_class_whatever %D \newskip \s_class_whatever %D \newmuskip \s_class_whatever %D \newbox \b_class_whatever %D \newtoks \t_class_whatever %D %D \edef\p_class_whatever{\classparameter\c!whatever} %D \edef\m_class_whatever{whatever} %D \stoptyping (coment appended to mult-aux.mkiv) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
