Policy about command names



Hi there,

I'm packaging ZABBIX (http://www.zabbix.com), a resource monitor &
agent. The original programs in the upstream source tgz file are
generated with names like this:

* zabbix_agent
* zabbix_agentd
* zabbix_server

...etc...

I've read somewhere (I think a package's changelog) that the name
"like_this" was changed to "like-this" because of the Debian policy...so
I've searched for this detail on the website but didn't found anything
about that. Is it truth that programs shouldn't have the underscore on
their names? I don't remember any command to have it anyways :-)

Regards,
