+- Changed reading and writing of floating point numbers into configuration files to
+ make it independent of the decimal point used in the current locale. All calls to
+ atof() have been replaced with the new function atod(), which makes sure the string
+ representation of a floating point number using a '.' as decimal point will be
+ handled correctly, even if the locale in use expects a ',' as the decimal point.
+ Plugins that read floating point numbers from their own configuration files will
+ also need to use atod() for this, or use a method of their own (this is not necessary
+ if values are stored in VDR's setup.conf file, because VDR takes care of this).
+ The reason for these changes is that floating point numbers presented to the user
+ shall be displayed in the way defined by the current locale (suggested by Stefan
+ Blochberger).
+ If you use plugins that store floating point values in configuration files of their
+ own and have not yet been adapted to this change, you should set
+ export LC_NUMERIC=C
+ before running VDR. Otherwise your plugin's configuration data may not be read or
+ written correctly.
