Hi ! I need an alias for my pdf-tool program .

The alias will be pdftool .

Thanks .

Why not just register the name pdftool and call your application that?

Hi ! @popey .

Its native name is pdf-tool, the alias is a suggestion from users.

I think if the snap is called pdf-tool then users will expect this to be the name of the command they would use. Users can also already set a snap alias themselves:

sudo snap alias pdf-tool pdftool

So I am not sure this alias has a strong use-case.

Okay ! Thanks @alexmurray .

@baldeuniversel seems you are ok with the suggestion so I am removing this request from our review queue. If you have any further question, please write here again.

Thanks!
