I've created a minting profile for creating new command line utilities based on MooseX::App::Cmd. In the skeleton directory of the minting profile, I have a generic name for the command: /bin/my_command. I also generate generically named commands in the Command directory: /lib/MyModule/Command/command1. Ideally, however, I'd like to be able to somehow pass the dzil new command the name of the script that goes in /bin and the commands in the Command directory because I'm lazy as hell (that and I'm just very curious to know how it can be done).

I searched around the various Dist::Zilla. I found the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::Run::AfterMint but it's not immediately obvious how I get the names of the files I want to this plugin through the new command, if it's possible at all.

$PM = "Perl Monk's";
$MCF = "Most Clueless Friar Abbot Bishop Pontiff Deacon Curate Priest";
$nysus = $PM . ' ' . $MCF;
