>OK. You all have convinced me. (Yes, I do take advice, sometimes). Using m. prefixes is a small enough price to pay for even a marginal increase in code safety. We all know how even the tiniest slip-up can bite.
No matter how uniquely named my variables are I often find myself doing 'copy-paste' of variable names in a code block (when I don't trust that my fingers would exactly write the same thing). Thinking that m. might be a time saver too while coding providing support for intellisense. It gives the support in command window and I heard some utility exists giving support in code editor (don't ask me where, I would download and use if I knew - probably one from Christof Wollenhaupt:).
Update: Great this thread led me to find a cool utility. Saying Christof myself (good I remember at least he was the author:), I tried to search in downloads and found it:
