[Monotone-devel] mtn command, extension, and MIME type

[Shaun Jackman]

Hello all,

I am willing to bet that many folk on this list have created an alias
for the eight-lettered `monotone' command. I could see it being useful
for monotone to start shipping a short symlink to the `monotone'
command. I use `mt' myself, although this conflicts with the old
magnetic tape command. I saw someone else on this list using `mtn',
which, as far as I know, does not conflict with any other utility.

On a related topic, a standard file name extension and MIME type for
monotone databases would be a plus. I use .mt for this purpose, but if
the above mtn symlink is popular, I'd suggest .mtn.

Thoughts?

Cheers,
Shaun
