Hey,

I just went thru a bunch of interfaces and noticed a good pattern in  
wording.  I propose to make this part of the style guide:

rewind - go back to the beginning of a chunk of data
(used in: textfile, binfile, msgfile, etc.)

reset - clear the data from a container; or, go back to the initial  
state
(used in: zexy/index, cyclone/MouseState, maxlib, etc.)
