### PROGRAM PREFIX

The prefix of this program is variable, i.e. it can be configured at build time.

Usually the client programs of **libmemcached-awesome** are prefixed with **mem**, like **memcat** or **memcp**.

It can be configured, though, to replace the prefix with something else like **mc**, in case of that, the client programs of **libmemcached-awesome** would be called **mccat**, **mccp**, etc. respectively.
