I got that segfaults too... looks like MINITERM need to turned
ON, and if the QRM is too big, the parser couldn't catch the
lines, and then drops the segfault.

I rewrite the receive method a few hours ago, and pushed to my
repo.

The most common changed is now you have to put the received QTC
text to a file, in the contest directory. The name of file is
RTTY.qtc. Here is my contest directory:

logcfg.dat
QTC_recv.log
QTC_sent.log
RTTYlog
RTTY.qtc
rules
waedc.log

Now you can keep open that file, and everytime when you get a
QTC, just put it to that file, and save that. The file format is
something like this:

13/10
0620-SP1EG-033
0621-;43PV-045
0621-R4WTAPTP
PYWWADF4WC-064
0624-EO3Q-229
0628-OH2HAN-130
0629-PC1EMR-007
06
9-PA2LP-026
0630-HG4I2WY
PYNP HG1G-115

Before you save it, align all lines:

13/10
0620-SP1EG-033
0621-;43PV-045
0621-R4WTAPTP
0-WWADF4WC-064
0624-EO3Q-229
0628-OH2HAN-130
0629-PC1EMR-007
069-PA2LP-026
0630-HG4I2WY
PYNP HG1G-115

It's no problem, if there is an invalid line. Now save it, and in
opened window, press ALT-c, this reads qtc's from file, and fill
all fields.

All invalid lines will be marked with ?, and if you move the
cursor to that line, the serial field, and press ENTER, Tlf will
asks again that qtc.

I think this is the best solution at this time, in RTTY mode, the
QTC's are very fast, and it must to edit with hand to parse them
- there is no other choice.


Sorry for the awkwardness, as I wrote, this is my first
WAEDC-RTTY.
