Post your longest label name ever, and we can see who has the longest. Don't be a prick and make one up, either. Here's mine:
VPutCodeContinueFromClippingLoop
VPutCodeContinueFromClippingLoop
Looking at Project M, it appears I have a 3-way tie for 28 chars:
ObjectCollideRightExitedTile
ObjectMoveAnyXWithCollisions
ObjectMoveAnyYWithCollisions
ObjectCollideRightExitedTile
ObjectMoveAnyXWithCollisions
ObjectMoveAnyYWithCollisions
I'm afraid for you folks' code. Longest proper label name in LIFOS is 21 characters, but it's nice and descriptive.
Code:
Not quite labels, but the assembler treats them as such (defines). Longest is 22 chars:
Code:
And while we're discussing hideous code, have some magic with macros:
Code:
Code:
_shiftUpdateAllocated
_sendBitReallyDone
_recvCReleaseAck
_CID_hasDataSeekNot quite labels, but the assembler treats them as such (defines). Longest is 22 chars:
Code:
eRuntime_Unimplemented
LIFOS_VER_MAJORAnd while we're discussing hideous code, have some magic with macros:
Code:
;;Set string padding - use with current max string length for best results
.define SSP(len) .define STR_PADTO len+1
;;Unset string padding
.define USP() .undef STR_PADTO
;;Padded length-prefixed string- entire block is padded to [padto] bytes
.deflong PLPS(str, padto)
@ .db {2@}-{@}
@ .db str
@ .block padto-{-3@}
.enddeflong
;;Padded LP string, given current padding setting (via SSP)
.deflong PLPS(str)
.ifndef STR_PADTO
.warn "String padding not set- defaulting to 10!"
PLPS(str, 10)
.else
PLPS(str, STR_PADTO)
.endif
.enddeflong
Here's some of the worst offenders I found in the Doors CS source code (kudos, BranchMap!):
Code:

[31] GUISTextLineInClickloopIncLine
[30] GUISRemoveMouseEntriesDelLoop

[29] ParserHookHomescreenFindLoop
[28] GUISTextLineInClickloopDone

[23] DCSAPGetTypeProgCheck1
[23] GUIMousePutMseSaveLoop
[22] VATVAlidSkipPoundBang
[22] api_draw_square_noset
[22] GUIMouseSetupLoopMRet
I abbreviate in label names 
monster_acquire_upper_bound_loop (from my rogue game)
became
macq_b_loop
monster_acquire_upper_bound_loop (from my rogue game)
became
macq_b_loop

Don't you worry that Future Mapar007 will forget by "macq" or "b" stand for?
monster_acquire_upper_bound_loop (from my rogue game)
became
macq_b_loop
Since my assembler has no problem with my long but descriptive labels, I don't either. 
No, because I usually describe the routine in a comment.
The short names are just for fast-typing purposes.

Gotcha, I can respect that then. The short names are just for fast-typing purposes.
