NOTES

87   PROGRAM PREFIX
88       The prefix of this program is variable, i.e. it can  be  configured  at
89       build time.
90
91       Usually  the  client programs of libmemcached-awesome are prefixed with
92       mem, like memcat or memcp.
93
94       It can be configured, though, to replace the prefix with something else
95       like  mc,  in case of that, the client programs of libmemcached-awesome
96       would be called mccat, mccp, etc. respectively.
