* skins/utils/var_text.cpp: added $D (duration) and $L (time left) variables

  by the generic windows

    destructor when the font cannot be opened. drawString() now returns
    NULL if the initialization failed.
  * all: check if drawString() returns NULL

          * set language if present.

(key frames).

             - transformed some pointers into references

hope).

 * skins2/src/theme_loader.cpp: do not anchor windows _before_ restoring their
        previous configuration...
 * skins2/src/window_manager.cpp: fix for non-anchoring of invisible windows

* modules/packetizer/copy.c: better not send pts instead of invalid ones.
* modules/stream_out/transcode.c: when no pts, use dts wherever possible (low delay / b frame).

the maximum speed if the output can control the pace)

        is no dialog provider
 * skins/*: renamed 'onclick' attribute to 'action', to be coherent with
        other controls

   + libavcodec now interpolates the pts if you feed it with a frame with AV_NOPTS_VALUE. Make sure we handle that correctly.

* Drop the old scope plugin (not ported to aout3)

 start-time and stop-time (both given in second) ;)
 
 Becarefull that it won't work with all files because of missing/wrong
 media length (ex: ts, broken avi, ...) or the fact that the headers
 will not be read (ex: mpeg1 ps, perhaps ogg, ...)

Found and fixed:
- some untranslated macros
- some acronyms which were not in capital letters
- a couple of VLC Media Player (_m_edia _p_layer, now)
- typos here and there
- dots missing in some of the long texts
- spaces before ? and :, which is correct in french but not in english :)
- NT services are now called Windows Services

 * modules/demux/demux2.c: added all audio demuxer shortcuts.

  * Removed .cvsignore files and added proper svn:ignore properties.

 * select the right value in the group-combobox in the iteminfo dialog

    + Do not remove svn directories in autotools/ when using --distclean.

    + Added the 'video/x-ms-asf' MIME type to the plugin (Closes Debian
      bug #232690).

   This commit is also a blatant test of the SVN->CVS mirroring scripts. If
 it does not work, we're screwed :-)

    VLM is a little media manager. It is designed to launch several souts
    with a unique VLC. It is a kind of "server playlist". For now, it is
    only usable with the little telnet interface I wrote. The features are:
     - complete and barely coherent command line set for media setup and
       control
     - multiple input list by media (like a playlist)
     - loop by media
     - load/save config file (human readable)
     - script implementation (for scheduling, for example)
    If you want to test it, launch VLC with -I telnet, and type "help".
    Beware of the type of the media: vod or broadcast. vod will be used
    later.
     TODO:
      - rewrite the telnet interface (beurk)
      - change error message system and create a http interface for VLM
      - implement RTSP clients administration (with vod medias)
      - write a complete documentation...

 Too late packets according to this value are trashed. By default it is
0 ie don't trash any packets. (I think it's safer, else we may have too
much people complaining about broken picture or CSA not working anymore ;)
The drawback is potential floods of clients...

 shortcuts,any and 0 scored modules).
