I understand that you want something uniform, but personally
I like spice-foo better. So I would like to propose to rename
spicy-stats to spice-stats, and name the screenshot tool
spice-screenshot.

As for spicy itself, leave it as is, but maybe no longer install
it on a make install, since it really is for testing only?

Anyways not really a big deal, just a slight preference to
get rid of the spicy- prefix in favor of spice- before we've
even more spicy utils and renaming becomes painful.

Regards,

Hans
