Hi, a style of letter case in identifiers of which I was just now reminded (by Randy Brukardt mentioning them on c.l.ada) and that I had seen before in different sources looks like this:
No_of_Electrons King_of_Norway Bits_and_Pieces I like it, so I made an initial draft version of ada-mode.el that handles "of" etc. as part of auto casing. Since the set of words appearing in small letters differs per natural language, and in any case is subjective or a project's choice, this warrants customization. Being a draft version, setting up everything currently requires making two choices. They will in effect jointly set customization variables, one as before and one new: ada-case-identifier ada-title-case-language The first is unchanged, except for offering the new choice `ada-title-case'. The second is new. It essentially allows selecting a list of special words from a natural language. These settings will trigger title case. The lists can be customized as well, the variable is ada-title-case-words Patches are appended, one of them is made by GIT as I (also) have had difficulties running patch with the output of mtn diff. The original ada-mode.el is from org.emacs.ada-mode.stephe-2. Any views, at all? Some notes: There is nothing yet in terms of file locality of the variables set up for customize, although I don't see any that would prevent this. Maybe setting up auto casing should be done in one comprehensive routine? A minor optimization would place the newly selected list of title case words in the property list of the function using it, saving a lookup. Will a hash table for ada-title-case-words be more convenient than a property list? Natural language is perhaps a more general setting? I'm not sure if names, data structures, etc. are good. It's a draft. I also have not done any performance testing, but when none of this is used, then the overall impact should be that of one IF of a global variable (the language selected being non-nil). This could be improved by making `ada-title-case' a slightly modified copy of `ada-mixed-case', which it now is using with a additional boolean parameter. There are a number of natural languages to fill in! 8->
