Remote files can be edited in a text editor.
Empty lines and lines starting with # are ignored.
The first non-ignored line is the remote "Title".
The remaining lines (up to 12) are read as remote buttons. They have the following format.
capture path,button text,icon index,fg color index,bg color index,center frequency,samplerate
The position of buttons on the screen can be changed by reordering lines in the REM file.
