lower case variables is best with _,

          like_this

I find using Upper_First_Letter not good for reading:

           Like_This

I like bold/daker font for keywords (but lower case), to distinguish
them from normal text and user variables.

Upper first letter case is best for package names
and classes, but not for user variables and
function names and type names.

my 2.5 cents
