rename sigh binary to sighjs, or rename sigh entirely #9

Closed tcurdt closed 8 years ago

tcurdt commented 9 years ago

I've already had clashes with another sigh binary. Renaming the binary to sighjs would reduce the risk.

A collision with https://github.com/KrauseFx/sigh ?

I've spoken to the author of that, he thought of the name sigh about 3 days before I did, strange coincidence. I guess I should rename sigh, and all of the sigh plugins etc.

Trying to think of another good name though, I like the name sigh :( Here are my candidates:

Any suggestions?

I'll continue to support plugins named sigh- even after the name change.

tcurdt commented 9 years ago

Indeed - that's the project.

Frankly speaking I really like the name sighjs. It is very in line with the search for a good tool for the job ;) From that list ohno comes next for the very same reason :) Next would be gah.

I like the name sigh also, if only I'd created the first commit a few days earlier then I would have been first with it. Nope though, in all of the history of open source, two people selected the name a few days apart ;)

I've been delaying the name change until I can think of a name as good as sigh which may never happen. Actually I kinda want to call it murder after a murder of crows but yeah, society isn't ready for this brave naming.

Well, there is a project already https://github.com/lg/murder - and it's a pretty cool one :)

Another option would be to just call it through npm run and not use the global binary at all. Can't say I am a big fan of npm i -g anyway.
