In light of the recent icon discussion how about renaming the project
olive, abbreviation olv?  Yes, on qwerty 'o' and 'l' both require the
ring finger but in my experience that is radically easier to perform
reaching left pointer, left pinky (especially when both are on the
lower row).

I have no idea where olv falls on a dvorak keyboard.
