Thanks for writing it -- you've expressed the point well. I expressed unhappiness with the name when it was first proposed, but we didn't settle the issue then. It was proposed to "install it first, then choose the name," and that's what happened. In principle, it's ok to proceed that way, but it requires renaming a file. Since renaming an installed file is inconvenient, from now on let's make sure to settle all issues about names of files before installing them. -- Dr Richard Stallman President, Free Software Foundation (https://gnu.org, https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org) Skype: No way!
