The official repository name for this project is StringyMcStringFace. This name is used consistently for all references to the repository itself, including documentation, URLs, and automation scripts. The tool, crate, and binary produced by the project are referred to as stringy, which serves as a concise nickname and is used in code and command-line contexts.

Naming Conventions

• Repository/Project Name:
  The full name StringyMcStringFace is used for the GitHub repository, documentation references, and configuration files. For example, cloning the repository and referencing it in documentation always uses the full name:

  Copy

  git clone https://github.com/EvilBit-Labs/StringyMcStringFace
  cd StringyMcStringFace
  

  This convention is reflected in the README, installation guide, and contributing guide.

• Code References:
  The crate, binary, and module names use the shorter form stringy. This is reflected in the Cargo.toml:

  Copy

  name = "stringy"
  repository = "https://github.com/EvilBit-Labs/StringyMcStringFace"
  homepage = "http://evilbitlabs.io/StringyMcStringFace/"
  

  The main entry point and library files use stringy for the CLI and crate name:

  Copy

  #[command(name = "stringy")]
  println!("Stringy - Binary string extraction tool");
  

  See main.rs and lib.rs for examples.

• Documentation:
  All documentation files use StringyMcStringFace for repository references and URLs, while referring to the tool as stringy in usage examples and instructions. For instance, the installation guide explains:

  Copy

  cargo install --path .
  stringy --help
  

  The distinction is explicitly clarified in the README:

  Remember: it's StringyMcStringFace on GitHub, but just stringy on your command line.

• Automation Scripts and Configuration:
  Automation and configuration files consistently use StringyMcStringFace for repository fields and URLs. For example, in dist-workspace.toml:

  Copy

  [dist.github]
  repository = "EvilBit-Labs/StringyMcStringFace"
  

  Documentation configuration (book.toml) and spell-check configuration (cspell.config.yaml) also use the full repository name.

Maintaining Consistency

• Always use StringyMcStringFace when referencing the repository, project, or URLs in documentation, scripts, and configuration files.
• Use stringy for code-level references, including the crate name, binary, CLI tool, and module imports.
• When writing documentation or automation scripts, ensure that the repository name is spelled exactly as StringyMcStringFace to avoid confusion and maintain consistency.
• The cspell configuration includes both StringyMcStringFace and stringy as recognized terms to help enforce correct spelling in documentation and code comments.

Troubleshooting Naming Confusion

If you encounter confusion regarding the naming conventions, remember:

• The repository and all official URLs use StringyMcStringFace.
• The tool, crate, and binary are always called stringy.
• This distinction is intentional and documented in the README and other guides.

No inconsistencies or alternative names have been found in the project. If you notice any deviation from these conventions, please submit an issue or pull request to help maintain clarity.
