Naming of lynx?

Bonjour to all the developers - I have one quick question - I am not sure if it has been asked before. Why is the layout-extraction tool named "lynx"? This happens to be the name of the popular console-based web browser for UNIX, and can cause some confusion if both are in the user's path (It confused me a lot for a minute). Thank you for any response this might merit - I appreciate all the work that has been put into developing and supporting the Alliance tool-set. Matt Karaffa
