- Extended the SVDRP command LSTE to allow limiting the listed data to a given

Thomas Heiligenmann).

+- Timers can now be set to use the VPS information to control recording a programme.
+ The new setup options "Recording/Use VPS" and "Recording/VPS margin", as well as

+ Note that this feature will certainly need a lot of testing before it can be

+- The "Schedule" and "What's on now/next?" menus now have an additional column

+ whether an event has a VPS time that's different than its start time, and
+ whether an event is currently running (see MANUAL under "The "Schedule" Menu"
+ for details).
