It'd be nice to have a trivial form of control that doesn't need me to run any unusual commands. Right now, I user the pvr250[I hit tab here] command, but if I could simply do an echo/redirection, it would feel a lot more natural to me I guess (more UNIXy), and since it would be interfacing the device directly, I wouldn't get the obnoxious bktr warnings.
