[vdr] ANNOUNCE: graphlcd-0.1.0

[Andreas Regel <andreas.regel@gmx.de>]

Hi list,

here is a new release of the graphlcd plugin. Because of its increased 
size I splitted the archive into two: one with the plugin and all needed 
files to get it working (vdr-graphlcd-0.1.0.tgz) and  another one with 
the original font, logo, splash screen files 
(vdr-graphlcd-contrib-0.1.0.tgz). You will need the second e.g. if you 
want to build your own fonts.

You can get them both here: http://www.powarman.de/vdr_graphlcd.htm
