Yeah, let's spread confusion whenever posssible!
5 years from now, several users will discuss about their use of 'pim'.
But *which* pim? (less importantly, it is ridiculous to have several
packages conflict for such a non-reason).
Call it tupim, tbpim, whatever makes you happy and let -devel discuss
more important things.
Later, you'll be happy that asking $SEARCH_ENGINE for the name you chose
really leads to your program's home page and not to that of a random
other Personal Information Manager.
If typing tupim is too much for you, for God's sake, use an shell alias
as everyone told you already, or create a /usr/local/bin/pim if that
makes you happy, but *leave this list in peace*.
