Repository name is not a plugin name #10

When using git clone, the default name of the target directory is taken from the name of the repository, such that

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/badner/lab_to_praat.git

will result in the creation of the directory ~/lab_to_praat.

Praat plugins are detected as such by

  1. Being in the Praat preferences directory
  2. In a directory whose name matches /^plugin_/

The scripts as they are right now assume "htklabel" for the name of this plugin (in order to be able to specify paths, etc, so that name is really just temporary). If you think that that name is acceptable, would you consider renaming this repository to plugin_htklabel, so that cloning it from the preferences directory results in the correct directory being created?

If htklabel is not acceptable, I'd recommend choosing a name that is, and then renaming the repository to match. For the record, plugin_lab_to_praat should also be valid.
