So, it sounds like there's a few options:

a) Automate the creation of the obfuscated version from the unabridged  
version

b) Tweak the system to run from "camping-unabridged.rb" (or a short  
name thereof, e.g. "campsrc")

c) Make the obfusc version "camping4k", and make camping-unabridged.rb  
the default camping.rb

Any of those seem viable?
