Version 0.04vdr-0.04

- Changed name from 'osm' to 'vdr' to avoid mixups with the 'oms' program that
  appears to be in use with DVD replay.
- Implemented a channel display in the top menu line.
- Implemented replay progress display (press "Ok" when replaying to bring it up).
- Implemented direct channel selecting by pressing the numeric keys.
- Added several 'const' keywords to please stricter compilers.
- The repeat function for the remote control no longer adapts dynamically
  to the timing of the RCU (this sometimes caused the repeat function to
  kick in too early).
- Channel selection is now blocked when recording or replaying.
- Improved process handling.

 Yet another "set-top-box"?
@@ -25,112 +31,6 @@ of commercial set-top-boxes usually are a lot more fancy than
 the ones in this system, but here we have the full source code
 and can modify the menus in whatever way desired.
 
-Compiling and running the program:
-----------------------------------
-
-Make sure the files from this package are located in a
-directory that is "parallel" to the DVB directory of the
-driver source for the Siemens DVB-S PCI card (refer to
-http://linuxtv.org/dvb/siemens_dvb.html for more information
-about that driver). For example, if the DVB driver was
-extracted into the directory /home/kls/vdr/DVB, then this
-package should be extracted into /home/kls/vdr/OSM.
-
-This program requires the card driver version 0.04 or higher
-to work properly.
-
-After extracting the package, change into the OSM directory
-and type 'make'. This should produce an executable file
-named 'osm', which can be run after the DVB driver has been
-installed.
-
-There are two macros you can use to customize the 'osm' program
-at compile time. Adding "DEBUG_REMOTE=1" to the 'make' call
-will use the PC's keyboard as input device instead of the "Remote
-Control Unit" (see http://www.cadsoft.de/people/kls/vdr/remote.htm).
-Adding "DEBUG_OSD=1" will use the PC screen (or current window)
-to display texts instead of the DVB card's on-screen display
-interface. These modes are useful when testing new menus if you
-only have a remote connection to the VDR (which, in my case, is
-located in the living room and has neither a monitor nor a keyboard).
-
-Configuration files:
---------------------
-
-There are three configuration files that hold information about
-channels, remote control keys and timers. These files are currrently
-assumed to be located in the directory from which the 'osm' program
-was started (this will become configurable later). The configuration
-files can be edited with any text editor, or will be written by the
-'osm' program if any changes are made inside the on-screen menus.
-The meaning of the data entries may still vary in future releases,
-so for the moment please look at the source code (config.c) to see
-the meaning of the various fields.
-
-Learning the remote control keys:
----------------------------------
-
-There is no default 'keys.conf' file, so if you compile the program
-without 'DEBUG_REMOTE=1' you will have to go through a "teach-in"
-session that allows the program to learn your remote control codes.
-It will first attempt to determine the basic data transfer mode and
-timing of your remote control unit, and then will ask you to press one
-key after the other so that it can learn the various key codes. You will
-at least need to provide an "Up" and a "Down" key, so that you can switch
-channels. The rest of the key definitions is optional, but the more keys
-you define, the more you will be able to navigate through the menus and
-control recording/replaying.
-If the program has been built with "DEBUG_REMOTE=1", it will use the
-key configuration file 'keys-pc.conf', so that you won't loose data
-when switching between normal and debug mode.
-
-The default PC key assignments are:
-             
-  Up, Down, Left, Right     Crsr keys in numeric block
-  Menu                      '5' in numeric block
-  Ok                        Enter
-  Back                      Backspace
-  0..9                      '0'..'9' in top row
-  Red, Green, Yellow, Blue  'F1'..'F4'
-  Record                    'r'
-  Pause                     'p'
-  Stop                      's'
-  Begin                     'B'
-  SearchForward             'f'
-  SearchBack                'b'
-  SkipForward               'PgDn' in numeric block
-  SkipBack                  'PgUp' in numeric block
-
-If you prefer different key assignments, simply delete the file
-'keys-pc.conf' and restart 'osm' to get into learning mode.
-
-Navigating through the On Screen Menus:
----------------------------------------
-
-The "Main" menu can be called up with the "Menu" key of your remote
-control unit. The "Up" and "Down" keys are used to select a specific
-item. The "Left" and "Right" keys can be used to change options, and
-the numeric keys allow direct input of numeric data. The "Ok" key
-confirms any changes (or switches to a channel in the "Channels" menu).
-The "Back" key goes back one level in the menu structure, discarding
-any changes that might have been made in the current menu.
-
-In the "Timers" menu, the current timer can be enabled or disabled with
-the "Right" or "Left" key, respectively (enabled timers are marked with ">").
-"Ok" here opens the "Edit timer" menu.
-
-Textual options, like channel names or recording file names, can be edited
-by pressing the "Right" button (which puts brackets around the current
-character as in "[R]TL"), selecting the desired character position with
-"Left" and "Right", and changing the character with the "Up" and "Down"
-keys. "Ok" then confirms the changes.
-
-The "Red", "Green", "Yellow" and "Blue" buttons have special meanings
-in the various menus and are listed at the bottom of the on-screen-display.
-
-At any point in the menu system, pressing the "Menu" key again will
-immediately leave the menu system.
