Hi Craig,

Instead of just proc-2 as the name, I think we should name the installed 
include directory libproc-2 or maybe libproc2 without the dash (or even 
just libproc).  That's similar to some other library approaches.

I don't think it's very important what we name it under our development 
tree.  However, our tree is a bit of a mess even beyond the include 
directory inconsistencies.

There seems to be little rhyme or reason behind the following directories:
     Documentation/
     doc/
     include/
     lib/
     misc/
     proc/

Perhaps they should be consolidated or reorganized in some manner.  And 
maybe our non-library source files shouldn't be scattered over three 
directories.

In any case, whatever you decide I could help update the man 
documentation if required.

Regards,

Jim
