I agree with you and I'm sure no one will never use the name lisp to
package this software, and as a contributor i don't see the problem of
it; let me explain.

The official name is linux-show-player as you can see on google code
homepage, I've just sent a build script to Arch User Repository and it's
called linux-show-player(-svn). If you want to launch the program the
command is, you guess, linux-show-player.

LiSP is an easier to write acronym for documentation, list discussion,
bug reporting...

I hope this dispute on the name won't affect your opinion on
the software itself, and if anyone is willing to propose an alternative
great-sounding name I'm sure the main author would consider it ;)
