Comment(by annakrat):

 Replying to [comment:31 glynn]:
 > Another possibility with regards to abbreviating compound words would be
 to use an upper-case letter (rather than a specific character, such as the
 single quote in the previous example), so backGround_color would work like
 back_ground_color but arguably isn't quite as ugly. Similarly, "columnS"
 doesn't seem as bad as column_s.

 Please don't do that. GRASS suffers from "too many ways to do the same
 thing", let's not make it worse.
