I figured as much, just didn't want to say anything in case I was wrong. It 
makes sense though. Lol, I remember being incredibly confused the first time 
I saw C#. It took me a while, although not as long as it might have taken if 
I weren't using a music related program at the time.

Hi,

Further to what Simon said about the music sharp and flat sign, I just want
to add that the # sign and lowercase b are used as they are the ASCII
symbols that most closely resemble the print music sharp and flat signs.

Hope this helps.

James.
