Put yourself in this situation: You are a UK hacker writing a program, using, say, curses, where all the constants are written in US English (MAX_COLORS, etc.). Now you want to write a function that returns a random colour. Now consider this paradox: Do you call it randomColour, making the integrity of names suffer? or do you call it randomColor, making it look ugly in your own eyes? Now with ncurses it's not a problem, there are only few variables that you can easily #define and put into void.h. But with OpenGL, there's a crapload of that and I don't know what to do.
