Hi folk,

I want to propose new idea about names of command line utilites...

For example, all present utilites have sence just for guru's (ls, rm,
fsck etc), but for novies it's hard to use. Is good idea to symlink'ing
(shell aliasing) these and much more utilz to another names? Like to:

ls -> filesystem.list
rm -> filesystem.remove
fsck.* -> filesystem.check.*
mkfs.* -> filesystem.make.*
convert -> media.convert.image
mencoder -> media.convert.video
oggenc -> media.convert.audio.ogg
mplayer -> media.player.*

etc

This idea will be easy to realize (need to make at first time one rpm
package with lot of symlinks... and then long-time work in all present
rpm-packages for respect this technology). But we need for
standartization of alias names... in ideal case, standartization must
touch all distros (new standard?)

P.S. This not my idea. Originally from:

Thanks for attention.
