Christian Soffke 5aa2b339d5 plugins & debug menu: apply consistent titles
Purge "Menu" or "Rockbox" from plugin menu titles
and match application names from manual.

Exception: "Main Menu" is left unchanged as the
title for the Main Menu Configuration plugin, since
it appears in Rockbox's Settings menu and therefore
should match the name of the setting.

E.g.:

"Rockbox Goban" => "Goban"
"Image Viewer Menu" => "Image Viewer"
"Viewer Menu" => "Text Viewer"
"Menu" => "Chess Clock"
"Do What?" => "Text Editor"
"Mpegplayer Menu" => "MPEG Player"
"Multiboot Settings" => "Multiboot"
"Disktidy" => "Disk Tidy"
...

Build Your Own Rockbox

1. Clone 'rockbox' from git (or extract a downloaded archive).

   $ git clone git://git.rockbox.org/rockbox

     or

   $ tar xJf rockbox.tar.xz

2. Create a build directory, preferably in the same directory as the firmware/
   and apps/ directories. This is where all generated files will be written.

   $ cd rockbox
   $ mkdir build
   $ cd build

3. Make sure you have mips/m68k/arm-elf-gcc and siblings in the PATH. Make sure
   that you have 'perl' in your PATH too. Your gcc cross compiler needs to be
   a particular version depending on what player you are compiling for. These
   can be generated using the rockboxdev.sh script in the /tools/ folder of the
   source.

   $ which arm-elf-eabi-gcc
   $ which perl

4. In your build directory, run the 'tools/configure' script and enter what
   target you want to build for and if you want a debug version or not (and a
   few more questions). It'll prompt you. The debug version is for making a
   gdb version out of it. It is only useful if you run gdb towards your target
   Archos.

   $ ../tools/configure

5. *ploink*. Now you have got a Makefile generated for you.

6. Run 'make' and soon the necessary pieces from the firmware and the apps
   directories have been compiled, linked and scrambled for you.

   $ make
   $ make zip

7. unzip the rockbox.zip on your music player, reboot it and
   *smile*.

If you want to build for more than one target, just create several build
directories and create a setup for each target:

   $ mkdir build-fuzeplus
   $ cd build-fuzeplus
   $ ../tools/configure

   $ mkdir build-xduoox3
   $ cd build-xduoox3
   $ ../tools/configure
