...it's probably wayyy overkill, but perhaps it'd be best if all Includes/Files were prefixed with really long/specific prefixes...(or even auto-prefixed with the file name?)...

...which would map the Library Author's preferred short names onto the Library's real long names, then the user could include all Library functions & edit the function name mapping include files if a conflict arises...
I would also like all built-in functions like this too, currently you can override a built-in function by re-declaring it...but then there's no way to call the original function...
Code:
InStr() {
msgbox, my custom InStr()
InStr() ;//infinite loop, can't pass to real InStr()
}
...so I'd like all built-in functions renamed to BIF_* or A_* or A_BIF_*...but still have default aliases of the BIF_* names to the names they currently use...InStr() would still exist by default as InStr() (& also as A_BIF_InStr())...but the default alias would be overridable...
Code:
InStr() {
msgbox, my custom InStr()
A_BIF_InStr() ;//pass to real InStr()
}
...then you can override the alias & still call the real BIF...
All of this would be infinitely easier with #define...

Code:
#define EX_Example Tuncay_EX_Example
#define COM_Release Whoever_COM_Release
...again, I said maybe it's overkill, but it would help solve Function Library naming conflicts...
