The problem:

I have just installed scotty-2.02 on my SUN IPC, and I realized that the
scotty lib directory was overwriting my previous version, which I
did not want as I would like to be able to run BOTH versions, at
least in the short term.

I can only provide the long term solution. Starting with scotty-2.1.0,
everything installed is tagged with a version number (following the
scheme used by Tcl7.5/Tk4.1). This should solve problems with future
upgrades because you can always switch between the last stable version
you are using and the newest version.
