why do I need to run "fix" when I want to run littlechef? #200

I find it confusing that I want to use a tool named littlechef, but have to run a command named "fix". apart from diverging from the application name, fix sounds like there's something broken that needs to be fixed - I only have an empty host to be installed, it's not broken ;)

Additional info: When runing fix, it complains that the filename is deprecated, but seems still to use it:

DeprecationWarning: deprecated config file name 'config.cfg'. Use littlechef.cfg

It's the same fix complainaing that created the file before

fix was chosen in order to keep the cooking jokes coming. cook was taken, so we looked for English synonyms and found fix. So its like saying that LittleChef is cooking a node. And we though fixing a node also makes sense grammatically.

OK, thanks for the explanation :) Was more or less only a small suggestion... The only thing I can imagine where it has an impact is when googling for errors and commands "fix node:WHATEVER" might result in a load more results, mostly ones that have nothing to do with my problem then "littechef WHATEVER" ... anyway I agree it's not important and don't have to be changed right now.
