When you write some new program, what fascinates you is: 1. latest version number. 2. most recent bugs fixed and features added. 3. something terribly clever in one of the algorithms it uses. When you have never heard of a program, what fascinates you is: 1. who is this program intended for? Who might make use of it? Do I need a PhD in something, or is this for the novice? 2. what problem does it solve? 3. if it is replacement for something, e.g. ANT, what deficiency does this new program address? 4. Where can I read more, especially see some sample code to use it? 5. Where can I download it to experiment? -- Roedy Green Canadian Mind Products http://mindprod.com One of the great annoyances in programming derives from the irregularity of English spelling especially when you have international teams. I want to find a method or variable, but I don't know precisely how its is spelled or worded. English is only approximately phonetic. Letters are randomly doubled. The dictionary often lists variant spellings. British, Canadian and American spellings differ.I would like to see an experiment where variable names were spelled in a simplified English, where there were no double letters.I also think you could add a number of rules about composing variable names so that a variable name for something would be highly predictable. You would also need automated enforcement of the rules as well as possible.
