Hmmm I got summoned here. Libraries that don't follow Nim's conventions are bad
but worse for Nim are non-existing libraries so go ahead and do what you
consider the best solution.
But fwiw, the reason why we make `foo_bar` the same as `fooBar` is that
`foo_bar` shouldn't exist to begin with
@dom96 is right. In a given language it's the _language 's_ rules that apply.
And there are good reasons for that. To provide just one example: Syntax
highlighting.
We should also keep in mind that **readability** has been shown in multiple
studies (which looked at _real world_ dev.

Off topic for this thread, sorry, but ...
I can't square this with Nim's liberal grouping of camelCaseWhichIHate and
camel_case_which_I_hate. So far, I only use Nim on linux, interfacing with
existing libraries all using

Hmm? I use it, and while I respect the author's choice to keep the current
convention I do wish it would follow Nim's type vs value casing guidelines at
the very least. It's not like it's a wild departure from the original lib and
could
I respect every contribution to Nim. But don't make conventions be a religion.
ok maybe you can make it yourself's religion, but do not command all others do
so.
In fact, I use wxPython so I can learn wNim without too hard work. wNim is the
first(and till now the only) library for me to make a

I don't agree. Name convention is not the faith or the absolute rule. The names
I used are more convenient and more familiar to wxWidget users, at least, for
me. If who don't like the name convention I used, he can choose not to use the
library.
You should follow the language's conventions, not the libraries.
wNim's use the name convention according to wxWidgets. wCommandID is
corresponding to wxWidgets' wxWindowID.
Please consider calling these types `WCommandId` etc. Nim convention is to name
types with an uppercase first letter.
if this is a package others should be able to install with nimble, you need to
create a nimble file. So that one could do
