Why mo instead of mole?

[MitchTalmadge]

Just curious why mo was chosen as the CLI command instead of mole. I understand it’s shorter but I actually find it harder to remember than just the name of the project, mole.

Hi, you can use as well "mole"

@MitchTalmadge @iamxorum is right, and it is worth stating clearly: both commands are installed. mo is a small shim, mole is the actual entry script, and they are interchangeable. Use whichever you prefer, and mole will keep working.

mo is the default in the docs because these commands get typed a lot, often several times in a row while reviewing a dry run. Two letters won that argument. But you lose nothing by typing mole.
