Abbrev Meaning Location, Use Sample Actual Usage
lp long pointer Usually found as a prefix to variable names. NARS makes frequent use of pointers to speed up processing times, to make NARS2000.exe more efficient. lptkRhtArg (var name; long ptr to token var structure of a right hand argument for a function call)
NELM Nested Element Usually embedded within variable names. APLNELM aplNELMRht; // Right arg NELM for variable type APLNELM and variable named aplNELMRht
PerTab permanent table Embedded in var names. LPPERTABDATA lpMemPTD; where LPPERTABDATA is the variable type and lpMemPTD is a pointer to PerTabData global memory
PTD permanent table of data Embedded in var names. lpMemPTD structured var name, in this case a ptr to PerTabData global memory
SIS State Indicator Stack Frequently embedded within variable and function names. Detailed explanation of SIS found in <sis.h> See also APL's System Command )SI. lpMemPTD->lpSISCur->ResetFlag; (var name) AND FillSISNxt (fcn name)
tk token Frequently found embedded in structured variable names. Tokens are basic building blocks of C Programming; hence tk vars frequently represent important structured variables in NARS. LPTOKEN lptkRhtArg
UTF Unicode Transformation Format Variable names, constants, especially UTF16 UTF16_RHO
