Naming on Linux between GNOME and KDE
When I fully switched to Ubuntu-MATE almost a decade ago, to call the calculator (via synapse), you needed to input galculator... as it was not recognizing the word calculator.
My wife told me "so we are teaching our kids to wrong spell calculator by galculator?", and she was right, I spoke about it in the ubuntu-MATE forum using my wife arguments, and the next update (~1 or 2 months later) they did corrected it
1 You are confusing the name of the app with its function. 2 This is not Image-Editor-Forum.net and you don't seem to mind?
3 And the g- or K- prefix is a good way to tell with which desktop it bests integrates with (even if I use `galgulatorè because it does the RPN I have been raised with).
1 No, not at all, not confusing anything. 2 It's a GIMP forum, GIMP is software that does more than just image editing, if it was called as you said, people could ask how to do it using Affinity photo, Photoshop, Pixelitor, etc....
3 I know very well what K, G, Qt, etc... mean, I was just making fun of it by showing how it can be wrong, and yes my wife is right ➤ it's not because a calculator software is called Kalculator/Galculator/Gnulculator/Whatnotlator, that you should not be able to call it by its function AKA "calculator" on Synapse ➤ which Ubuntu-MATE did, a good example would be the "alacarte" menu that you can call by "menu" or .... "mozo" (yeah... someone got some fun
)
