JRuby Command Prefix Should Be Consistent
------------------------------------------
Key: JRUBY-3635
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-3635
Project: JRuby
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: JRuby 1.1.3
Environment: Mac OS 10.5.6
Reporter: Conrad Taylor
Assignee: Thomas E Enebo
Priority: Minor
I noticed that JRuby command prefix isn't consistent in regards to 4
executables. For example,
gem should be changed to 'jgem' (Note: This command, jgem, exists in
the current code base and 'gem' should be removed.)
gem.bat should be changed to 'jgem.bat'
ri should be changed to 'jri'
ri.bat should be changed to 'jri.bat'
Why? At this time, most of the other commands use this convention. Next, it
simply makes it easier to interact with other Ruby
implementations without creating aliases. Furthermore, it's clear to the
developer as to which Ruby implementation they are
working with in regards to the command line.
