Do you have any preferences regarding the naming convention for compiler pragmas? http://dlang.org/pragma.html seems to suggest all_lowercase_and_underscors for names consisting of multiple words – other opinions?

I vote in favor of camelCase because it's the style we use for non-type identifiers virtually everywhere.

Well, the version identifiers use, erm, something else… ;)

To be fair, that's because most of them use abbreviations...

But if you see that becoming a similar trend with pragmas, then we can go down that road I suppose.

Some are based on the macro used C, some are based on the name of the operating system, some are based on something else.

I was referring to things like D_NoBoundsChecks, or MIPS_O32_SoftFP, which use a mix of Pascal casing and underscores.
