Just to:

Get us back on track with Livecode,

Provide the perfect foil to the thread about files suffixes,

and chew over an old chestnut . . .

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you are one of those people who are worried about being run over by a number 10 bus, AND, are arrogant enough to believe that somebody will want to use your code after you have 'moved on', surely one of the ways to expedite things (and Klaus can chime in here with a few more) is to adopt a COHERENT and CONSISTENT (personally I'm not completely familiar with what those words
mean) system of prefixation of objects/controls . . .

I tend (and the word 'tend' here indicates that I actually do this very rarely) to use a one
letter prefix system which is really useless, vis:

"fTEXT" is a field
"gPIC" is a graphic
"gGROOP" should be a group but you will confuse it with a graphic

various others have various other systems of prefixation . . .

so; how about this:

"fldTEXT" is a field
"grfPIC" is a graphic
"grpGROOP" is a group
"imgIMAGE" is an image
"btnKOPCHE" is a button

and so on?

Go, on; start arguing . . .  :)
