My apologies I sent this reply to David only by mistake. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Steve Haresnape <s.haresn...@creativeintegrity.co.nz> Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2019 at 13:09 Subject: Re: Camel case identifiers and folding To: David G. Johnston <david.g.johns...@gmail.com>
As I said, I don't want to quote my identifiers. I know what that does. I want to specify them in a certain way, see them in that same way, but refer to them in any old way. You can call it normalize or fold or whatever. It's a bad design choice, and not even a completely compliant choice. Is a cure contemplated? I know it's not just me that dislikes this.
