No, xlog does not have this, but this might be available in the
next version (0.7).

See a.

This might be a good idea. However, with so many modes we have today
(PSK31, RTTY, MFSK, etc.) and so many hamradio frequencies and different
bandplans for every continent, I think it very hard to program.

In principle, you can open an infinite number of logbooks.

See a.

Yes, it does just that.

Not sure what you mean. How many qso's are allowed?

This will depend on how much memory you have and what you think is still
acceptable for loading speed (loading of the logs takes the most time).
Future versions of xlog will have a db3 and SQL database, which will
be a lot quicker.

Don't know, never tried it. Maybe you can give it a try yourself?
With a simple editor it is rather easy to create a big log.
