| Hello @maliberty, @fgaray, I've just seen dft commands, but not tried it yet. | |
| The name of the commands seemed familiar, and I was wondering if it could be better to rename them to avoid potential legal issues such as this one: | |

| In case of renaming, maybe all dft commands could start with dft_* so that it's easy to find them ? | |
| ### fgaray | |
| Yeah, changing the names SGTM to avoid this issue. | |
| Do we know what other tools use to name this commands? (Cadence for example). I tried looking online but could not find Cadence's related docs. | |
| dft_insert, dft_scan_replace, dft_preview SGTM | |

| Thanks, we want to avoid any such conflicts. I am not aware of the proprietary tool names but am fine with a rename to avoid such. | |
