Describe the bug
Not so much of a bug as a request, would it be possible to rename/link Skyscraper to skyscraper?

To Reproduce
Build and install as normal.

Expected behavior
A lowercase binary name matching everything else on my Linux/macOS systems.

Additional context
I know this one is a bit pedantic but Skyscraper is the only app I've come across which is named in this way, would be a quick and easy fix. It would also be possible to symlink the old name to the new for backwards compat.

You can do it by yourself:

  1. Add line to ~/.bash_aliases: alias skyscraper=Skyscraper
  2. Download complete_alias wrapper:
cd ~/.local/share/bash-completion/completions
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cykerway/complete-alias/master/complete_alias
  1. Add to ~/.bashrc at the end:
source .local/share/bash-completion/completions/complete_alias
complete -F _complete_alias skyscraper

I’ve been doing it with a symbolic link - it was more a question of why it is how it is - everything else seems to be fairly standard behaviour and convention so was wondering (although given that wasn’t an implementation from you and it’s legacy now it would probably be a breaking change…)

I'd like to stick to the titlecase name. It isn't non-Linux standard or against the convention, it may be unusual.

I won't fix it yet. But I will put a short guide in the FAQ.
