Hi Ed,
The program creates a log by default, and says it is in the .xlog folder
in my home directory. However, there is nothing there, except the
configuration file.
Must I manually create an empty log myself, then write the contacts to it?
Are there docs for the program?? I've searched hard for it, but found
very little.
TY.
Art
PS:I am trying xlog based on a youtube video from a user that I know to
provide good recommendations. But, he is unreachable via email::>
