They have so many missed opportunities for things like that, like why isn't spectacle called spektacle
My vote goes to Kpectacle
Because at the same time plasma succeded kwin and dolphin konqueror, the kool naming scheme became optional. The snipping tool used to be Ksnapshot, which was at least obvious naming in what it did.
Man what does "snipping tool" even mean
I don't like this word either, selective screenshot or sth...
Screenshot. With features thats it imo
snip /snĭp/
intransitive verb
How the heck is that related to screenshot
It's usually combined with a rectangle/window selection, thus clipping a part of your screen into an image/clipboard.
I'm still mad that they renamed Kalendar to Merkuro
Also, Kalendar you can guess what it is... Merkuro? No idea
To be fair, its full name is actually Merkuro Calendar, but it's fucking stupid
Does Merkuro mean something in another language? Like Krita means Crayon in...Swedish? Norwegian? Scandahoovian? And for some reason they didn't call it Krayon?
I couldn't find anything
