The library is used to interact with the "Apple Remote Control" on Mac.
This is an early version of Martin Kahr's ["Remote Control Wrapper" library](
<http://martinkahr.com/2007/07/26/remote-control-wrapper-20/index.html>)
with modifications by Eric Bachard. Unfortunately the exact extent
of (and rationale behind) the modifications done is unknown, at least
until the original upstream source version it is based on is
found. Version control of this just starts with the monolithic commit
of the `appleremote01` CWS. Some technical detail can be found in the
OOo wiki:
