Jerry,

Lee Ridgway, while writing documentation for Ksign, was considering what
instructions to give to users about overwriting an existing "SETUP.EXE"
(from previous installers) on their hard drive.  We thought it would
reduce confusion if the Ksign installer was named something special
(KSETUP.EXE), so it would be unlikely to conflict with an installer
for a completely different application.

Does that sound like a good idea?
