Detailed Description

Rotator data structure.

Rotator Caps

The main idea of this struct is that it will be defined by the backend rotator driver, and will remain readonly for the application. Fields that need to be modifiable by the application are copied into the struct rot_state, which is a kind of private of the ROT instance. This way, you can have several rigs running within the same application, sharing the struct rot_caps of the backend, while keeping their own customized data. NB: don't move fields around, as backend depends on it when initializing their caps.
