This is kind of Off-Topic to the list ... but still ...

Personally, I consider Hungarian notation to be of no value, SDL
or otherwise. The name should be sufficiently descriptive to say
what information it carries and adding un-readable prefixes will
just add to the confusion rather than help one understand and/or
maintain the code.

Doesn't process_name "read" better than lpszProcessName?

Software evolves. It isn't designed. The only question is how
strictly you _control_ the evolution, and how open you are to
external sources of mutations. And too much control of the
evolution will kill you. Inevitably, and without fail. Always.
