 @SpindleyQ @fribbledom I used it as an undergrad extensively when writing large code bases in MATLAB m-script. It also is used in the Spelunky (original GameMaker) source code and it was just... so nice and readable and understandable. I like the idea of using it to basically extend types like you mention! 3 comments
@SpindleyQ You can see it in Derek's Game Maker for Beginners tutorial, it uses the exact same style as Spelunky. oFoo for an object named Foo, sFoo for a sprite named Foo. There are a few others. It's simple but it works and imo it's absolutely necessary for gmscript @darius oh yeah, I can absolutely see why having some kind of simple short disambiguation convention is just obviously needed sPipe n'est pas une oPipe |

@darius @fribbledom oh neat, I had no idea about Spelunky, would not have expected it to show up there!
