But I realized that the various ?zap options now get

is to merge the three ?zap progams into one, and possibly
move common stuff into a library.

I know this breaks backwards compatibility for scripts
which use ?zap, but I think we should do it before
doing a new dvb-apps release.

We can easily have one program (dvbzap?) which is linked as szap, tzap, czap, or any other name (like many GNU apps). When they startup, they check argv[0] to determine their default behaviour (sat, terrestial, cable, generic).

That way, no scripts break.
