[kepler-dev] IMPORTANT: ksw system now in use

[Chad Berkley]

ok, against my better judgement, I've changed all interface messages to 
"kar".  the file extensions have also been changed to "kar".  I have not 
changed any of the internal variable names or class names.  If I start 
doing that, it may take me several days of headaches to get the thing 
working again.  The first time a developer asks "why are all the classes 
  and variables called 'ksw'?" I'll just forward the question to bertram :)
