 The attached file can be used as a replacement for the "mythlink.sh"
 script in the "contrib" directory.  It allows the user to specify multiple
 easily customizable views using a simple environment-variable
 configuration and adds a few other enhancements to Dale Gass's original.
 Although the file is very different from the original, it is heavily based
 on Dale's version.

 The default settings create 5 views, sorted by time, title, recording
 group, category, and original airdate.  Definitely makes it easier to find
 files when using the filesystem (i.e. Samba/NFS shares).  The views are
 created in a loop, so the user can easily add or remove views without
 modifying the source (only the environment variable definitions at the
 top.

 I posted the script to the user's ML for comment, but didn't get any
 comments/suggestions.  So, either no one tried it out, or I should have
 posted it to the dev list, or it was just way too broken.  ;)  (It works
 great on my system, so I have no indications of problems with it.)

 I didn't attach a diff because only 3 lines from the original were kept,
 so it seemed counterproductive.  If you prefer a diff, let me know.
