Good point Gary about old files still being around after a grabber is 
removed.

I think the best plan is probably...
     N     - message and keep working
     N+1 - message and error
    N+2  - moved to an archive folder in the repository, remove from 
Makefile.

I'm pretty sure git can move a file/folder w/o losing the history 
(that's a benefit of git)

When a message is displayed, It should be big and have a sleep after 
it.... and ignore --quiet of course.
Maybe something like

****************************************************************
*** notice:  tv_grab_sd_json is being replaced by tv_grab_zz_sdjson
***
*** change now! your application will break on next update
***
****************************************************************
sleep(30);

The biggest downside to that plan is the old file stays in the repo 
longer, but this plan does eventually
get rid of it, so it is an improvement over current processes.
