Subject: On Style: Any opinions on *not* capitalising the first letter of verbs in a procedure name ?

Hi folks,

   I've been trialling this style and come to like it. An example would be ...


   declare
      package Integer_Vectors is new Ada.Containers.Vectors (Positive, Integer);
      
      Integers : Integer_Vectors.Vector;
   begin
      Integers.reserve_Capacity;
      Integers.clear;
   end;


   The idea is to only capitalise the noun parts of the procedure name. It's a minor thing I guess, yet I find code a little easier to read when used.

   On the other hand, the half dozen Ada people I've discussed the style with have been dubious at best.

   So any thoughts ? ... good, bad or ugly ?


regards.
