A few more minor updates for the Naming Conventions section:
...
- recommend that all new libraries use the standards, but point out that
internal consistency with existing standards is more important.
- Use b and B instead of x and X (it's hard to distinguish the case of X in
some fonts)
- StudlyCaps is another name for CapWords
- Re-order list so Function Names are followed by Method Names. Also, added a
few blank lines in the Method Names section, and described how underscores
should separate words for readability.
- Added that double leading underscore is usually only necessary to resolve
name conflicts in subclasses.
