Rename all macros to use \texdimen prefix? #1

Closed jfbu closed 3 years ago

jfbu commented 3 years ago

The user interface macros are named \texdiminbp, \texdiminbpdown, \texdiminbpup, etc...

But the package name is texdimens and some internal macros use \texdimen prefix, for example \texdimenstrippt (which has a public name).

Also \texdiminin is a mouthful. Wouldn't it be better for the user macros to be named \texdimenbp, \texdimencm, \texdimenin?

Hi, thanks for proposal. Probably if I had thought of it earlier I would have used this naming scheme. I think I will ultimately adopt it, although this will be a major breaking change. This project is currently marked as "WIP", but perhaps I will wait until user base grows to create maximum buzz at time of breaking change.
