-Naming Convention.
-
-The CIAO's CIDL compiler directory was called CIDLC which stands for
-CIDL Compiler (like CC stands for C Compiler, etc). This directory
-wasn't called CCIDLC (CIAO's CIDL Compiler) or CIAO_CIDLC because
-that would incure needless tautology since the directory structure
-(.../CIAO/tools/CIDLC) already implies that it's CIAO's CIDC.
-
-Now about CIDLC executable name. The logical name of the excutable
-implied by directory name (CIDLC) would be cidlc (like cc for
-C Compiler). However there was a concern originally expressed by
-Nanbor that cidlc is too generic name and when installed for
-example as /usr/bin/cidlc would loose it's CIAO's context.
-
-At the same time recommended by FHS (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard)
-package installation location is /opt/<package>. Thus if installation
-directory would be for instance /opt/CIAO then naming CIDLC executable
-ciao_cidlc would create needless tautology (i.e./opt/CIAO/bin/ciao_cidlc).
-Though in my opinion there is nothing bad in having generic name like
-cidlc (user always can execute cidlc --version) and as suggested by FHS
-installations like /usr/bin/ciao_cidl are non-conformant the decision was
-made to call CIAO's CIDLC execuatable ciao_cidlc.
