There are two naming conventions in ffap.el: one where the function name ends with the `-at-point' suffix, and another where the function name begins with the `ffap-' prefix. The problem with adding the `-at-point' suffix is that it will create more horrible names than using the `ffap-' prefix. Currently the `-at-point' suffix is used only for relatively short names like `find-file-at-point' and `dired-at-point'. But using it for other names will create names like `find-file-read-only-other-window-at-point' (41 characters!) instead of the current `ffap-read-only-other-window' (27 characters). That's because the name `ffap' compresses 18 characters of `find-file-at-point' into 4 characters of `ffap'. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
