open discussion for the name of zink CLI

elko

currently we're using elko as the name of our CLI, it is because:

  1. the characters in elko can be typed easily with our hands on the keyboard, e.g. for the default position, (left hand starts with f, right hand starts with j), we don't need to move our hands to type this CLI in our terminal, note that with zink we need to move our left hands to type z
  2. and the end of the pronunciation of elko is like cargo, for the meaning of packages, elk with a package (the shape of o), and elk has the k same like zink at the end ...

cargo-zink

cargo zink # equals to `elko build`

with the cargo prefix system and with the name zink for optimizing the impression of our branding
