I know that the command names are based on setfacl and getfacl. But sometimes
I still wonder about these names. They just don´t fit.
Its chsomething for changing things in Unix traditionally – chown, chmod,
chattr, chage chsh, you name it –, but there is nothing for querying things.
So I get where this is coming from, yet I always found setfacl and getfacl
command names cumbersome.
Sorry, for posting here instead of a previous richacl implementation patchset.
I fully appreciate that it may be too late to change anything regarding
command names. Also considering usermod and groupmod the command naming in
Unix / Linux appears to be a big mess anyway.
Thanks,
