Comment(by ylee at pobox.com):

 I have uploaded a slightly-modified version of Roo's v4 patch. For me,
 running 0.20.x, v4 (which I realize was written against SVN) never worked
 quite right. While, within Program Finder, pushing the Program Guide
 jumppoint would properly take me to Guide, going from Guide to Finder
 didn't work because I have TV Settings|Program Guide|Allow channel jumping
 in guide enabled, and so would see "6" as the start of a channel number.

 The attached patch, v5, has the following changes:
  * The Program Guide and Program Finder jumppoints act as toggles. Pushing
 Guide within Guide, or Finder within Finder, exits (back to either
 playback or the main menu, as appropriate). Although I've never used one,
 I'm told that some people prefer this behavior as they are used to it from
 using various cable settop-box DVRs' remotes.
  * Within Guide, the Finder jumppoint does not do anything; the same with
 the Guide jumppoint within Finder. I realize this is not optimal, but I
 couldn't figure out how to jump from Guide to Finder or vice versa without
 stuffing a keybinding into QString. (I did not want to hardwire the "#" or
 "S" keys, for obvious reasons.) The "FINDER" and "GUIDE" special bindings
 did not work in this context. I hope someone else will quickly figure out
 the obvious functionality I am surely overlooking and fix this issue.
