    Hi!

    For a project, I need to add an alternate version of an accent, say “grave”, which I’ve named “grave.alt”.
    I’m using uppercase versions of accents to build uppercase accented glyphs, which I usually name with the suffix “.uc”. The uppercase version of “grave” is then “grave.uc”.

    My question is, how do I name the uppercase version of an alternate version of an accent?
    In my case, shall I name it “grave.uc.alt”? Is it safe for a project in development, to double suffixes? If not, what would you recommend as best practise?

    Thanks for your help, best,

    Mathieu Christe

    Hi Mathieu

    it doesn’t really matter, just make a system that makes it easy for you to search and find subsets by suffixes.
