In what way is it any better than appending suffix _V to variable names, _P to procedures and _F to functions? If you think that adding _V to variable names is unreasonable, you are not alone, but if at the same time you cannot find any obvious reason for _T in types being better than _V in variables, then the only honest conclusion is that all such rules are equally misplaced. -- Maciej Sobczak * www.msobczak.com * www.inspirel.com
