Who said Hamlib is not fun ? hi.

~/.xlog/log.xlog is good as a default. However, to me, only preferences
should go in the ~/.xlog directory. Data have a right to be somewhere
else. With a multi-log capability, instead of loading *.xlog from ~/.xlog,
maybe remembering in ~/.xlog/perferences the pathname of last open log
files should be enough. What do you think?

Ah! I'm waiting for the configurable number of fields for a long time.
Actually this is the only "feature" I still miss to switch to xlog as my
main logging application. Why? because in France, we are _required_ to
log also the End time of the QSO and the transmitted Power.
And then, expect to see a patch to import twlog log files very quick ;-)
Cheers,
Stephane
