You should explain\nthe two names.\n\nYou concentrate on Cogito, which is almost certainly reasonable\nfor normal starting points, but that's not clear in your text.\n\nAlso: The Cogito user interface is about to undergo a\nsignificant rename of the commands.  It won't be hard to update\nyour text for it, but you'll need to do so.\n\n--- David A.
