Full subject line is:
Semi-automatic creation of Luup devices for controlling physical devices via IR transmitters attached to Squeezebox 2/3 or Transporter 
Sketch of implementation:
[ul][li]1. Install the Luup plugin ‘IR Luup Device Creator for SqueezeBox Server’ (IRLDC4SBS)[/li]
[li]2. Download the Lirc configuration file for the remote for your physical device from http://lirc.sf.net/remotes/. Upload it to your Squeezebox Server (SBS) and to your Vera (‘MiOS developers’ → ‘Luup files’ → ‘Upload files’).
Example: http://lirc.sf.net/remotes/philips/26PFL5604H[/li]
[li]3. Set the IRLDC4SBS variable ‘FileToConvert’ to the name of the Lirc configuration file and click on IRC → ‘Convert Lirc configuration file to Luup device’
Result (SIR: Squeezebox IR):[/li][/ul]

Question:
Is there a way to automate step 4?
