Mention .lslo or .lsl; add preparation instructions for AVpos.

Browse source 
There is a .lsl file (the Lockguard plugin) and there may be more to come, so mention ".lslo or .lsl" instead of just ".lslo".

One user in the group had problems because the AVpos notecard had never been saved; to prevent that, add instructions on preparing an empty AVpos notecard that has been saved.

## Importing the AVsitter2 scripts into Second Life / OpenSim
1. Visit the [AVsitter project releases page](https://github.com/AVsitter/AVsitter/releases) and download the ```.zip``` file for the latest AVsitter2 release to your computer.
1. Visit the [AVsitter project releases page](https://github.com/AVsitter/AVsitter/releases) and download the `.zip` file for the latest AVsitter2 release to your computer.
2. Unpack the file you downloaded to a folder where you plan on keeping your AVsitter distributions.
3. In your Second Life inventory, locate a suitable place and create a folder named AVsitter, where you'll save all the scripts and needed objects.
4. For each ```.lslo``` file that you unpacked from the ```.zip``` file, create a new script in your Second Life inventory and rename it to match exactly the same name as the file you unpacked, but without the ```.lslo``` at the end of the name.
4. For each `.lslo` or `.lsl` file that you unpacked from the `.zip` file, create a new script in your Second Life inventory and rename it to match exactly the same name as the file you unpacked, but removing the `.lslo` or `.lsl` at the end of the name.
For example, if the script you unpacked was called **[AV]sitA.lslo** then the script you create in Second Life should be named simply **[AV]sitA**. The name of the script is important! Do not add ```.lslo``` at the end of the name.

5. For each script you just created in Second Life:
- Open the script in Second Life by double-clicking it.
- Open the corresponding ```.lslo``` file on your computer with a plain text editor (e.g. Notepad).
- Open the corresponding `.lslo` file on your computer with a plain text editor (e.g. Notepad).
- Select All text in the file (CTRL-A) and Copy (CTRL-C).
- In SL, replace the script's content with the text you've copied. You can do this by overwriting the text of the default script by Selecting All (CTRL-A) and pasting the code you've copied from your computer's text editor (CTRL-V).
- Once you do this, hit **Save** to compile the script. If you get a script error, then you have not correctly replaced the entire script's contents with the content of the file on your computer.
- No errors? Then proceed similarly with the rest of the scripts.
When you have finished this process you should have created one script for each ```.lslo``` file that was in the ```.zip``` file, copied the file's contents from your computer and saved it in the corresponding Second Life script.

6. There's still one thing to do to have the distribution working:
6. Prepare an **[AV]helper** object.
- In Second Life, rez a box and name it **[AV]helper**.
- Inside its contents, drop the **[AV]helper** script that, at this point, you must have created by following the above procedure.
- Take the **[AV]helper** object to your inventory.
7. There's still one thing to do to have the distribution working:
- Create a notecard in your inventory and name it **AVpos**.
- Open it and write this text in it: `This notecard is empty` (any text that is not an AVpos command will do, even a space).
- *Save* it. This step is very important. Notecards that have never been saved after being created will cause problems.
- Use that notecard as an empty notecard when following the user instructions below.
After importing the AVsitter2 scripts into Second Life you are ready to follow the [AVsitter2 User Instructions](https://avsitter.github.io/avsitter2_home). Where the instructions mention the **[AV]helper** object, it refers to the object we've just created with the script inside.
