-Variable names begin with the type in lowercase, like nSomeVariable.
-Please don't put the first word of the variable name in lowercase like
-someVariable.

-Common types:
-n       integer number: short, unsigned short, int, unsigned int,
-            int64, uint64, sometimes char if used as a number
-d       double, float
-f       flag
-hash    uint256
-p       pointer or array, one p for each level of indirection
-psz     pointer to null terminated string
-str     string object
-v       vector or similar list objects
-map     map or multimap

--------------------------
-Locking/mutex usage notes
-
-The code is multi-threaded, and uses mutexes and the
-LOCK/TRY_LOCK macros to protect data structures.
-
-Deadlocks due to inconsistent lock ordering (thread 1 locks cs_main
-and then cs_wallet, while thread 2 locks them in the opposite order:
-result, deadlock as each waits for the other to release its lock) are
-a problem. Compile with -DDEBUG_LOCKORDER to get lock order
-inconsistencies reported in the debug.log file.
-
-Re-architecting the core code so there are better-defined interfaces
-between the various components is a goal, with any necessary locking
-done by the components (e.g. see the self-contained CKeyStore class
-and its cs_KeyStore lock for example).

-Threads
-
-StartNode : Starts other threads.
-
-ThreadGetMyExternalIP : Determines outside-the-firewall IP address,
-sends addr message to connected peers when it determines it. 
-
-ThreadSocketHandler : Sends/Receives data from peers on port 8333.
-
-ThreadMessageHandler : Higher-level message handling (sending and
-receiving).
-
-ThreadOpenConnections : Initiates new connections to peers.
-
-ThreadTopUpKeyPool : replenishes the keystore's keypool.
-
-ThreadCleanWalletPassphrase : re-locks an encrypted wallet after user
-has unlocked it for a period of time. 
-
-SendingDialogStartTransfer : used by pay-via-ip-address code (obsolete)
-
-ThreadDelayedRepaint : repaint the gui 
-
-ThreadFlushWalletDB : Close the wallet.dat file if it hasn't been used
-in 500ms.
-
-ThreadRPCServer : Remote procedure call handler, listens on port 8332
-for connections and services them.
-
-ThreadBitcoinMiner : Generates bitcoins
-
-ThreadMapPort : Universal plug-and-play startup/shutdown
-
-Shutdown : Does an orderly shutdown of everything
-
-ExitTimeout : Windows-only, sleeps 5 seconds then exits application
