   set (thanks to Andreas Brachold).

-2005-09-17: Version 0.1.2
-- split off drivers to GraphLCD base package (libglcddrivers)
-- split off graphics and font handling to GraphLCD base package
-  (libglcdgraphics)
-- split off tools to GraphLCD base package
-- adopted the plugin's code to use the new driver and graphics API
-- removed low level driver settings from the plugin's setup page. They
-  are now located in the driver lirbrary's configuration file.
-- display class: grouped current state values into some structures
-- using a mutex for exclusive access on current state values
-- moved current vdr state structures to new class cGraphLCDState based
-  on old cGraphLCDStatus class.
-- completely rewritten logo list implementation
-- further code revising
-- added channel IDs for logonames.alias.1.3 for the DVB-T channels in Berlin
-  and probably other areas in Germany (thanks to Andreas Brachold)
-- now compiles with gcc 2.95 and 3.x
-- added missing #includes
-- made the plugin more thread-safe by making the global state variable
-  a member of the display class and correcting the initialization order.
-- added possibility to switch on backlight at user activity and switch it off
-  at user inactivity (thanks to Andreas Brachold). Can be enabled or disabled
-  in setup menu.
-- added additional space between progress bar and logo on small LCDs (thanks
-  to Andreas Brachold).
-- added loopmode display in mp3 replay mode (thanks to Wolfgang Fritz).
-- replaced usleep with cCondWait::SleepMs() for vdr version 1.3.14 or greater
-- adapted to changes in vdr 1.3.18
-- now using verdana fonts converted by genfont as default for large displays.
-- moved plugin initialisation to cPluginGraphLCD::Initialize and added a wait
-  for the start of the display thread to cPluginGraphLCD::Start to don't miss
-  first channel switch (thanks to wofritz from vdrportal.de)
-- added rumanian translations (thanks to Lucian Muresan)
-- Added support for Freetype2 fonts based on the patch by Lucian Muresan.
--- the fonts used by the plugin are no longer specified through symbolic
-   links to the font files but in a config file named fonts.conf that is
-   located in the graphlcd config directory (where logonames.alias is)
--- the entries in the fonts.conf file are defined in a URL like way, a prefix
-   gives the type of the font and a absolute or relative path gives the
-   font file, plus the size in case of freetype2
--- I provided several sample fonts.conf files as a replacement for the old
-   symbolic links
-- Fixed length of timebar in case event lasts longer.
-- Added a patch for VDR 1.3.29 and up that adds a new method Tick() to the
-  cStatus class. This method is called from vdr's main task every second. The
-  patch should apply to older versions too, maybe small changes are needed.
-- Now querying the replay state in the cStatus::Tick() method if available.
-- Now loading config file in cPluginGraphLCD::Initialize and not in
-  ProcessArgs. So it is possible to view the help page without specifying
-  config file and display.
-- Rearranged includes to prevent an compiler error regardings the swap
-  function.
-- Added a check for EIT scanner activity in cGraphLCDState::ChannelSwitch
-  function to prevent showing channel logos during replay.
-- Added a check for file extension in replay type identification (thanks to
-  Andreas Brachold).
-- Added channel logos for Radio Eins (thanks to Andreas Brachold).

-2004-09-26: Version 0.1.1
-- fixed vdr 1.2 service id compile error
-- fixed t6963 driver: added range check in Set8Pixels, now all sizes should
-  work
-- new driver: gu256x64-3900, should support other sizes too (thanks to
-  Ralf Müller)
-- Added, replaced and removed some channel logos (thanks to Marco Birkholz)
-- Now using a channels unique channel ID (without Source, VDR-1.3) or service
-  ID (VDR 1.2) instead of channel names to identify the channel logo.
--- During this I have renamed almost all channel logos so it is needed to
-   replace your old /<vdr config directory>/plugins/graphlcd/ completely.
--- There are now two logonames.alias files, one for vdr 1.2 and the other one
-   for vdr 1.3, you maybe have to recreate the link, p. e.
-   "ln -sf logonames.alias.1.3 logonames.alias" if you have a vdr 1.3 version.

-- fixed sed1520 driver: removed a unnecessary ReverseBits (thanks to Andreas
