Why not just use their shorter and unambiguous actual name?

Well, two reasons, the most important being I was in a rush (relatively speaking -- i was procrastinating doing something with a deadline at the time) and couldn't be bothered to look up the /actual/ names. (Sorry about that.) But the other reason is that you can actually control the names of the files, by using the -p option with configsmoke. Try doing perldoc lib\configsmoke from the run directory for more options.

Regarding your friend the technical author, i know what you mean. Its hard to document/explain something that you know really well without falling into these types of traps. Review by third parties is always useful.

Anyway, do remember that not a lot of people have set up smoke, and even less on win32, and that the package is a work in progress. Contributing back improved documentation would be very useful. :-)
