    This is the real big-endian way. So your things line-up when you have all of these:

    file_dialogue_open
    file_dialogue_close
    file_dropdown_open
    file_rename
    directory_remove
    

    If I were designing a natural language, I’d put adjectives after the nouns, so you start with the important things first:

    car big red

    instead of

    big red car

      Heathen! You must alphabetize all the things!

      Like seriously. It makes scanning code much easier.
