most applications have a name that doesn't imply it's use but are catchy, right? Gimp, Apache, Tomcat, JBoss, Inkscape, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Gnumeric, ... I think the catchyness is more important than implying it's use. SynthJ, JSysexManager or JSynthManager are not really an improvement. >> JSynthLib sounds like library, not application.

If we start a name context I'll throw in: - Jones (*J*ava *O*pen source *N*ice *E*ditor and librarian for *S*ysex) - Jamidiquai - MIDIthang - No SysEx till marriage ;) May the winner get eternal praise.
