Wouldn’t a compatibility symlink or shell script have been enough?

- fundamental 5y agoPerhaps, though you'd end up with the same 'nsmd', 'nsm-proxy', and 'nsm-proxy-gui' commands with the same 'NSM_URL' environmental variable. Ideally there'd be more separation, but then you do lose the drop in compatibility. For a longer lived fork it would make sense (IMO) to use the proposed symlinks, though initially it was basically the same exact software as upstream + a few modest patches.
