Ramalama seems mispelled, and I end up mistyping it because of that #489

I keep typing ramallama instead of ramalama. Is it intentional that ramalama is mis-spelled? It seems to be a competitor to ollama which has two L's and yet ramalama only has one. The llama animal (as seen in the logo on this github project's home page) has two L's.

@rhatdan What's your perspective on this?

The name is based on the song:

rama lama ding dong

We could add a link command to it with ramallama, but I don't know if this has been done in the past with other commands.

Could update /etc/profile.d/ramallama.sh and ramallama.csh

With
alias ramallama=ramalama

This would fix the issue with Linux, but this directory does not exist on Mac, and zsh handles this differently.

I think I did the mass rename at the time (the first version of this project was called, podman-ollama, and then podman-llm, can't remember it was a while ago), I remember having this debate in my head for about 10 seconds and went with the single "l" like the song 😅

Could just create a simple symlink also:

´´´
ln -s ramalama ramallama
´´´

then we don't have to worry about what shell we are on, it's more portable.
