http://localhost:9000/html/docs/buttons.html left me with a lot of
questions.

Ok, so the .ir files map a remote's buttons to the IR code.
So if I have a "power" button on the remote I might enter
the .ir file:

    power    = a25d48b7

Then in a .map file I might map that key to turn my SBII on or off:

    power    = power_toggle

What I don't understand is how the server knows which .map file
goes with which .ir file.  I assume that when the IR code a25d48b7
is generated that the server looks for the first "power" in any of
the .map files.

Or should I prefix with the name of the remote.  I have a Bose
programmable remote, so:

    bose_power   = a25d48b7

Then in the map file

    bose_power  = power_toggle

The reason that makes sense is the Bose remote control can be
programmed to act like a number of different remotes, so I might have
multiple .ir files.  So, when the remote is programmed to act as a
Toshiba DVD remote I would have this .ir file:

    bose_toshiba_dvd_1503.ir



"power" seems like an obvious example.  But, say I have a record "rec"
button that I'd like to make use of -- say to toggle the brightness.
So, which do I use:

    # in .ir file
    rec     = a25d5da2

    # in .map file
    rec     = brightness_toggle

Or would I do this?

    # in .ir file
    brightness = a25d5da2

    # in .map file
    brightness = brightness_toggle


Finally, is there a list of all the functions I can use in the .map
file listed someplace?

And from the docs, I really don't understand where [INPUT.Text]
applies.  Are there any more docs on this?
