gridengine is an implementation of a standard resource management 
system. The q* commands it has are shared across some alternative 
implementations and have a pretty clear naming scheme in that they run 
operations on cluster queues.

As this software has been around for many years, it is not sensible to 
rename it. Please resolve this within the qtile package.

thanks and regards
Afif
