Furthermore, naming a class instance klass or clazz or claas is just an egregious abuse of English. What was ever wrong with cls?

@propensive Somebody needs to make up a fancy Greek name for this kind of keyword-avoidance metaplasm.

@travisbrown Yes - though I generally use the name I want in backticks. There's only one rule to remember then...

@propensive I agree, but e.g. "clazz" is common practice, and a name for the practice would be descriptively useful in some situations.

@travisbrown Agreed, clazz is the usual, though I've just seen clazz, claas and klass in the same project. So, obviously, I've used cls.
