Should not matter. The name of a DBFAWK file in the
/usr/local/share/xastir/config directory isn't important, only the "dbfinfo"
field it contains. Unless, of course, you have two files with the same
dbfinfo, which would mean that the first one in alphabetical order would be
the one that actually got used.
What's important is that the dbfinfo field match the dbf signature of the
shapefiles.
Only when a dbfawk file is in the same directory as the shapefile and has the
same base name is the name important. This is how you can override a global
signature-based file with a per-file dbfawk.
