+Contact:       Mauro Carvalho Chehab <m.chehab@samsung.com>
+Description:
+               Reading this file returns a list of available protocols,
+               something like:
+                   "rc5 [rc6] nec jvc [sony]"
+               Enabled protocols are shown in [] brackets.
+               Writing "+proto" will add a protocol to the list of enabled
+               protocols.
+               Writing "-proto" will remove a protocol from the list of enabled
+               protocols.
+               Writing "proto" will enable only "proto".
+               Writing "none" will disable all protocols.
+               Write fails with EINVAL if an invalid protocol combination or
+               unknown protocol name is used.
