I found myself using rebuild a lot recently.  I especially like how it 
generates all the .obj files in a single directory, rather than all over 
the place - it makes cleanup a bit easier.

So the hyphenated-namespace.obj technique: does this have a name?

The reason why I ask is I'm bound to reference this in my project 
documentation at some point, and I'd like to have something convenient 
to call it.

I find myself wanting to call it "Gregorian Notation", but perhaps 
there's something better (or more punny) waiting in the wings?

Shouldn't that be "Gregorian-Notation"? :P

As a side note, I think that would be an excellent name.  That way, we
know who to blame for it. :)

P.S.  I think Gregorian-Notation is brilliant; it's one of the reasons
why I'm trying to transition from bud to rebuild.

I suppose.  But then you don't see people calling it 
pcszHungarianNotation, now do you? ;)

The hyphen stays, that's great.

When I saw rebuild do this, it was a head-slapper, that's for sure.

The original name used in #d and so forth when the feature was added is 
"fully-qualified object files," or sometimes "FQN object files." That q 
is where the q in the -oq command-line option to Rebuild comes from.

As Kirk mentioned, I just call it "fully-qualified object file naming."

That being said, I'm a narcissist, so I certainly wouldn't argue 
"Gregorian Notation". I'm sure everyone in the Gregor D Community using 
the Gregorian Shared Software System enjoys the Gregorian Naming of the 
Gregorian Object Files.

Don't you think it is enough with having a calendar named after you?

All your base are belong to Gregor.  We are Gregor, resistance is
futile.  Use Gregorian-brand sanitary wipes today!  I'm sorry, I can't
come to work, it's a Gregorian holiday.

:P

What you really need now is your own calendar.  How about the...
Gregoriffic Calendar?

Where can I get a Gregorian Hat?  And will it prevent aliens from
