10.5.4 Naming Conventions
Naming conventions have been established for LilyPond source code.
Classes and Types
Classes begin with an uppercase letter, and words
in class names are separated with _:
This_is_a_class
Members
Member variable names end with an underscore:
Type Class::member_
Macros
Macro names should be written in uppercase completely,
with words separated by _:
THIS_IS_A_MACRO
Variables
Variable names should be complete words, rather than abbreviations.
For example, it is preferred to use thickness rather than
th or t.
Multi-word variable names in C++ should have the words separated by the underscore character (‘_’):
cxx_multiword_variable
Multi-word variable names in Scheme should have the words separated by a hyphen (‘-’):
scheme-multiword-variable
