How about 'tmt'? Your finger is already up there for the t, seems to
be quick.
tmt tmt tmt tmt tmt tmt tmt. Not bad. That said, I also use the 'e'
alias. Too long and it starts to become a hindrance. For a similar
story, when I was evaluating the monotone SCM, one of my biggest gripes
was that it didn't have a quick to type name like 'cvs', or 'svn'.
Three characters or less seems to be my personal tolerance before I
start to get annoyed.
