+# runvdr: Loads the DVB driver and runs VDR
+#
+# If VDR exits abnormally, the driver will be reloaded
+# and VDR restarted.
+#
+# Set the environment variable VDRUSR to the user id you
+# want VDR to run with. If VDRUSR is not set, VDR will run
+# as 'root', which is not necessarily advisable.
+#
+# Since this script loads the DVB driver, it must be started
+# as user 'root'.
+#
+# Any command line parameters will be passed on to the
+# actual 'vdr' program.
+#
+# See the main source file 'vdr.c' for copyright information and
+# how to reach the author.
