I run _both_ gemfire and geode on my laptop and I found this gfsh conflict
early on.  I created a symbolic link named "geode" and pointed it to the
geode gfsh binary.  I then just say "geode start locator ...", etc.

I thought of other alternatives but "gesh" wasn't doing it and so I just
left it "geode".

My vote is to just call it by the product name, geode.
