Should have a more straight-forward name #82

Like colorl, or colorlist, or color. pastel may be forgotten after 1 month not using it - "I remember I used a cool color cli tool and now I forgot its name".

Searching google for "rust color cli" seems no "pastel" in first page. Maybe it will be after this issue is created :=)

Well, I think it is pretty straightforward, considering that pastel is a type of color. Just ask a dictionary of your liking.

Thank you for your feedback.

I like the name :smile:.

This project was published a few days ago...

Having a too generic name would certainly not help with discoverability.

Another thing to keep in mind is if the name is already taken. pastel was still free in a lot of package repositories and on crates.io:
