+w_scan2 is a small channel scan tool which generates
+ATSC, DVB-C, DVB-S/S2 and DVB-T/T2 channels.conf files.
+
+It's based on the old "scan" tool from linuxtv-dvb-apps-1.1.0
+
+The differences are:
+- no initial tuning data needed, because scanning without this data is
+ exactly what a scan tool like this should do
+- it detects automatically which DVB/ATSC card to use
+- much more output formats, interfacing to other dtv software.
+
+w_scan2 is a fork of the original w_scan
+from https://www.gen2vdr.de/wirbel/w_scan/index2.html
+
+
+adds optional LCN to channel names (channels.conf: mplayer/vdr/xine)
+LCN=yes ./sage.SlackBuild
+so that, if you want the channels sorted by LCN, you can run
+w_scan2 -c IT -X | sort > channels.conf
