Announce: edition and validation tool for /etc/LCDd.conf

Hello

When I begun dealing with lcdproc, I had some trouble finding out what needed 
to be configured in /etc/LCDd.conf. I admit I was a bit lost among the many
available drivers.

Since my pet project [1] is to make configuration activities easier on the
end user, I thought it would probably help other beginners to use my
Config::Model project to create a tool to edit and validate /etc/LCDd.conf.

This tool is now available and shipped with Config::Model (*) and
Config::Model::TkUI Perl modules [2]. (also available in Debian sid in
libconfig-model-perl and libconfig-model-tkui-perl).

The following URL provides more details on how to use this tool:

lcdproc authors will probably notice that LCDd.conf comments were heavily
reused to create this configuration editor. I've detailed there how this was 
done:

Thanks to the conventions used in the comments, extracting a model from the 
LCDd.conf template file was possible. I would like these comments to provide 
more details to improve the generated models and the generated documentation 
[3]

Can I propose patches to improve LCDd.conf comments in this way ? 

Other feedback are also welcome.

All the best

Dominique

(*) Shipping lcdproc model with Config::Model is currently more convenient. It 
could be shipped separately without problem.
