CHIRP

Please take a look at these files and consider them for addition. README is finished. INSTALL requires some massaging by someone who more clearly understands what packages are needed with Redhat and similar systems. The install.sh and uninstall.sh files are quickies to make things easier for people who might not grok how Python packages are installed.

The README is fine, and the INSTALL seems okay too, with the caveat below. I don't use these sorts of apps on RedHat/Fedora systems, so I can't check the dependencies for correctness. However, I expect your list is close enough.

Regarding the install scripts... CHIRP is a standard python program, and thus I feel strongly that installation of it should remain consistent with others. With the addition of your helpful INSTALL file (assuming we remove mention of these scripts and provide the proper command lines) I think just about any user will be able to figure it out. Further, the user can just run chirpw directly, or click on it from a UI file manager and get CHIRP running without installing.

Can you make these changes and submit to the development list as a proper mercurial patch? I can just dump these in and commit them, but I'd like for your name to be stamped on the changeset like the other developers if possible.

Thanks!

Looks like these changes made it into the repo about 4 months ago. Closing..
