This sounds and looks just horrible!

I vote to scrap the abbreviations and use the long forms! Should be easy enough to write a script to translate the short forms to the long forms, in fact the editor could change them dymanically as you type, thus getting the best of both worlds!

Just my 1.8 Euro Cents worth!

A Modest Proposal:

How about if we eliminate both and enforce just a single-character
typing convention for objects and numeric values only for object
identification? That way "field 3 of card 7" would come out to "f3c7"
for a minimum of typing. The engine's parser would, of course,
separate these into separate tokens "f 3 c 7" and be quite happy.
Developers would have to type just four characters and the code would
be much more readable because there's just one way to describe an
object instead of two. The engine's parser would also run faster
because it wouldn't have to discriminate between two different forms
of object description.
