FWIW, I would have found it more natural to shorten the name as "hf" or "hef", as "el" is just a definite article in Arabic and is as such part of a fair few family names (like it's the case in French and Italian with prefixes like "De" or "D'" or German's "von" and so on, I guess "hel" is as if Beethoven's file would be called "lvon-sonata.ly", it's... strange), but obviously that's Hassan's choice. In saying this, I do find awkward and in poor form to have files called with a pattern like "johns-ballad.ly" in the general repo, it seems like we could easily find a better name for this file, more descriptive of its purpose and less related to the original author.
