I am using a "cmd-name!" naming format for functions that are adding to the command list that will be communicated to the host program.
(cmd-sound! WAV-FILE) (cmd-set-position! pos yaw-radians) Etc. I am considering using a terser naming convention, perhaps "@name", so you would have: (@sound WAV-FILE) (@set-position pos yaw-radians) Etc. I would argue that while they do mutate global state by sticking something on a list, the list is never looked at except at the very end of the frame to hand it over to the host system, so they are more like a display / log function that a global state hazard, and having a syntax cue for functions that are going to impact the sensory presentation may be useful. Thoughts? What symbols have the least historic baggage? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
