New name for llama #81

Closed antonmedv closed 1 year ago

antonmedv commented 1 year ago

I think it will be wise to rename llama to something else.

Here a few names:

  1. golscd
  2. walk
  3. navigo

Any ideas?

What's the problems with llama ?

You seem unhappy with it, any try to add "go" in the name.

I would say people would will use it doesn't care about the language.

Lool at alternatives: ranger, nnn ... I have no idea what they use, I tried them and liked them.

I think llama is a pretty good name.

Facebook’s LLaMA is way more popular name)

keqing77 commented 1 year ago

could be a shorter name, llama is a little bit long to type😂

carvilsi commented 1 year ago

I think that walk is a nice name :heavy_plus_sign: :one:

I do not know, maybe also possible go4walk

andylima commented 1 year ago

I came here precisely to see if people were considering a name change because of Facebook's Llama. 😄

...And I agree that walk is a great name. 🚀

Seems like the from source installation method won't work until a new release is published:

❯ go install github.com/antonmedv/walk@latest
go: github.com/antonmedv/walk@latest: github.com/antonmedv/walk@v1.4.0: parsing go.mod:
        module declares its path as: github.com/antonmedv/llama
                but was required as: github.com/antonmedv/

Unfortunately this renamed project conflicts with https://github.com/google/walk.

antonmedv commented 11 months ago

It is not =). There is no single registry for names. No npmjs.org. So it means - no conflicts.

Google agrees with me https://www.google.com/search?q=walk+file+manager

@Dialga That project is 4 years old and still has only 65 stars. Not exactly a popular project… It's pretty much unknown in the CLI tools community. In fact, the popular find alternative is called fd — https://github.com/sharkdp/fd.

Furthermore, if you really want to use that Walk tool as well as Anton Medvedev's Walk, you can — just use an alias.

Yes but that google created project predates yours by two years. I don't use it at all and already use fd - I'm just pointing it out in case you missed it. My only concern is that there is an AUR package with the name 'walk' already in use by 'walk-git' which this project won't be able to use. https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/walk-git

I didn't know about Google's project. Even if I knew about it, would not consider changing my name. Not obligated.

For me only two concerns was:
