Program finder record button?
Hello all.

There is a movie on tonight I wanted to record, so I used the handy program
finder to locate it but I wasn't able to intuitively figure out how to
record the show once I selected it in Program Finder. R, space/eneter
didn't seem to work. Once you select the specific showing of a show you
find in program finder how do you mark it for recording?

Although I don't agree with it, "I" is the button you need. It will
give you the record options. I'd prefer space/enter, but I didn't code
it and I doubt a keypress change would get put into CVS.

I agree 100% "I" is not nearly as intuitive as Enter. It makes perfect
sense that you cursor to the show and hit Enter, and it brings up a menu on
that show. Instead it does nothing. People post all the time about not
"guessing" the "I" key.

Maybe BOTH could work? Then just phase out the "I" key eventually?

I think it used to work that way but it looks like it got
commented out in the last set of changes to progfind.cpp. I guess
there was some problem with it?
