DESCRIPTION
NCID output modules are used to extend the functionality of the client.
They are mostly simple shell scripts although there is one program for
the TiVo that acts like a module.
Module names are of the format: ncid-<name>.
Modules are normally called by the client using the command line:
ncid --no-gui --program ncid-<name>
The client can only call one module at a time, but multiple clients can
each have a different output module.
Each module may have a configuration file called ncid-<name>.conf>.
The ncid-<name>.conf> also understands three line types:
blank line: ignored
comment line: begins with a '#' and is ignored
shell variable: set to a value, for example: foo=bar
The current modules distributed with NCID are:
ncid-alert
ncid-initmodem
ncid-kpopup
ncid-mythtv
ncid-notify
ncid-page
ncid-samba
ncid-skel
ncid-speak
ncid-tivo
