I have 250kb of Euphoira libraries, being readied as a new alternative 
to RDS's standard libraries. I would like to be able to allow users to 
use either one, or possibly BOTH at once.

My libraries use many of the same file names as RDS does, and for good 
reason. I resent the opinion that I should have to rename all of my 
meaningfully named files, just to accomodate your ignorance of the 
problem.

Do you know what I can do instead?
I can simply not release my libraries. That saves everybody the headache 
of dealing with filename conflicts.
