You /really/ couldn't find a better acronym/shortcut than one that WILL be in conflict with Midnight Commander?

mc (the original one) is 21 years old, btw. Check wikipedia.

We really tried hard to make it shorter. We addressed a similar question previously at #873 .

Minio's mc is a single static binary, typically copied to user's home dir (~/bin). We are not expecting Minio's mc to be bundled with the Unix or GNU/Linux distros.

Besides, Minio Client is an object storage client. Midnight Commander (mc) is a free software clone of proprietary Norton Commander (nc). Minio and Midnight shares no code or ideas. Only their abbreviation is same.
