The name used in Pypi is atrocious

[proafxin]

Hello. Is there a reason you named your package pyent on pypi? https://pypi.org/project/pyent/
In my humble opinion, there were more important things to reserve that name for such as Elementary Number Theory. The full name of your project does not even shorten to ENT. I would like to request you to consider renaming your pypi package to something more appropriate e.g. pyent-randseq.

I have nothing to do with the creation of this package and had never heard of it before. You should address comments to the author of the Python package, who according to the page on pypi.org, is: Inndy Lin ***@***.*** I wrote and maintain the original C version, which was named "ent" because its main purpose was to compute Shannon entropy of sequences to evaluate the performance of compression algorithms.
