zopen issue with .profile aliases #469

Open gngrossi opened 1 year ago

gngrossi commented 1 year ago

One of the things I ran into was having a “clash” with two aliases I had in my .profile. Thus far they were zopen and syslog. I also use functions in sourcing profiles.

I found the syslog function being sourced from ../zopen_pm/meta-0.7.0/bin/lib/common.inc

Questions: 1) Would using underscores as part of your function names help? 2) Is there a “standard” for system level function names that is considered a best practice? 3) Would using underscores work? example for syslog: syslog

thanks

We could prefix with zopen_ for the syslog function or to create our own namespace for everything

my preference is zopen_ as a prefix. We have done that for functions and environment variables for zopen build already.
