[vlc] Re: Please help: remote control interface initialized, 'h' for help

[Derk-Jan Hartman]

vlc is designed to work with several interfaces. gui, commmand line and 
all of that on several platforms.
Apperently you compiled/specified no gui interface and vlc falls back 
to the command line/remote control interface.

you can now type h to get a list of commands you can use to control a 
video, or if you want a gui, you should recompile with  
--enable-wxwindows (you need to have wxwindows installed for this of 
course) or --enable-gtk (the 2 preferred/working interfaces)
