Help: ICE_FLAGS
Flags are typically specified in the config string with either a comma ","
or vertical bar "|" as a separator. They modify the standard behavior of
the library routines as noted. The ICE Midas primitives take a FLAGS switch
to add flags to the current config string. For instance:
SOURCEPIC/flags=(VHS|MUXCLK=A|MSBI)
NOTE: The flags argument in the ioport() routine are NOT for tuner flags.
The tuner flags must be placed in the config string.
