I'm not a Mathematica user, but I second that. I'm doing the same with the
Python/Ruby/Scheme bindings I'm exporting through SWIG---for instance,
foo.size() is exported so that in Python one can write len(foo), and
Calendar::isBusinessDay is exported to Ruby as "isBusinessDay?" with the
question mark, and to Scheme as "is-business-day?" as hyphens are used to
separate words.

And by the way, I just had a look at your notebook with the MathReader you
link to. It looks awesome.
