| How do you do it?

the Hungarian naming convention breaks down phenomenally early in the
abstraction process.  I think this is one of its main purposes: keep people
working with code that just about anybody could maintain without having to
look at the least number of lines of surrounding code to understand it.

I don't think Hungarian coders do it.
