[TYPO3-english] Renaming an extension - SOLVED

Kickstarter is working fine, now.

First, I've copied old wizard_form.dat and wizard_form.html (containing 
old extension names) inside new extension.
Second, I've used kickstarter to change names, and saved it.

Now it works, I've changed extension name and kickstarter works with new 
name.

Regards,

Tonino
