But maybe other people have a different taste.  Although I nearly always work 
with UNIX-style systems, I don't think that it's a good idea to have 
UNIX-like darcs commands.  darcs is not a UNIX tool but a multi-platform 
application.

In addition, David Roundy didn't chose mv instead of move to please UNIX users 
but to make clear that this command's meaning differs to the meaning of 
remove.  But I suppose that for many people its not intuitively clear that 
the choice of mv over move has this meaning.  I think that in contrast it 
confuses people because it's kind of an inconsistency.

Best wishes,
Wolfgang
