[gentoo-dev] Language styling translation tools

I frequently work with C# applications, and rather than remaining perpetually 
irritated by innate class and method (et al.) naming style of the .NET 
framework, I'd like to either find or write a script to rewrite the class and 
method names automatically. Ideally, such a script would run after a 
repository checkout to rewrite the names, and then again before a commit to 
put them back to the way that they were previously.

This can't be a simple search and replace, as my own code would be in the 
C-naming format, while the .NET routines would need to be in the condensed 
format; therefore, based upon the libraries that are included by a given 
piece of source code, the script would need to determine which portions of 
the code belong to those libraries, and which do not.

Before I start coding, is anyone familiar with an application that performs 
this function, or could be adapted to do so?

Isn't that sort of like speaking French with English words?

Sorry, perhaps I should actually state what I need to do in clear terms:
I need to turn MyQuiteLongClassOrMethodName() into 
my_quite_long_class_or_method_name() and then back again.

What the tool should basically do is in some way record the full names 
(including namespaces) that were changed, and then at the end change them 
back again.

That was one of the first things that I considered, but how would it know to 
automatically convert any new additions to a file? Without some type of 
context helper, it wouldn't know what to do.

Yeah, I understood that. I was just poking fun.
