Here are some more changes required for the substitution method.
--SNIP--
# substitute display settings
cat $SKIN_TEMPLATE \
| sed -e "s/%MENU_DISPLAY%/"$MENU_DISPLAY"/" \
| sed -e "s/%CHAN_DISPLAY%/"$CHAN_DISPLAY"/" \
| sed -e "s/%TIMER_DISPLAY%/"$TIMER_DISPLAY"/" \
> $SKIN_TMP
--SNIP--
With attached changes to the template. This code is untested, but I'm sure it
would work.
