and I forgot to mention why:  the command name reflects what the  
command does,
not how it does it.  wakeonlan would be misleading, because a LAN  
could also
be a token ring, where this would nor work... (ok, exaggerating a bit,  
but you get
the idea)

should we rename ssh to sshovertcpip ;)  tcpdump to tcpdumponlan?
