Name conflict with jc's 'jc' #633

Open s2k opened 2 years ago

s2k commented 2 years ago

Context

I would like to use Kelly Brazil's jc (see https://github.com/kellyjonbrazil/jc) as well as auto jump's jc in the same context.

Observation

Both use jc as a shell command. Obviously only one of them can possibly first in the PATH first and therefore babe run.

Question or (feature) request

Is it possible to resolve this name clash, so that users of both pieces of software aren't affected by it?

I see a number of possibilities:

  1. jc changes the name
  2. autokump changes the name
  3. Both include a way to circumvent the issue described above
  4. Both READMEs (or other documentation) mention the issue and provide a workaround (if we find one, which should certainly be possible)

For (cross) reference, I added a similar issue to the other repo (and will link it as soon as both issues have a link): https://github.com/kellyjonbrazil/jc/issues/150
