I remember seeing somewhere a dictionary of idiomatic word pairs for use in programming.
Like get–set, open–close, allocate–free and so on.
Does anyone remember an URL?
There are two short lists of such pairs in Code Complete, one for function names, one for variable names. You can search for “Use Opposites Precisely” using amazon’s look inside feature if you don’t have the book.
