[Tlf-devel] noob question- tlf sound files

[Jim Bruce]

OK, going to try tlf (tlf 1.1.0/Ubuntu 10.04LTS) this weekend finally. It is in 
the :ssb mode. I've played with it in cw for a while so on to ssb. I would 
prefer to use linux for my shack and move away from windows as much as I can. I 
have .wav files listed below in the logcfg.dat file. These were used in n1mm 
and some were added using Sound Recorder in Ubuntu. While I'm not a master of 
the logcfg or the rules cfg files.
1- How do I play/enable the sound files to send the files to the radio? (F# 
keys for cw)
2- Is the logcfg.dat info below correct? I am using my sound card and not a 
voice keyer.
3- For a sound card, should I put the sound paths in the Function key list 
where the cw info is, in the Alt # keys or is it OK in the VKM# area?

Pressing F1 brings up a GNOME help file, Alt 1 brings up the qso note (Alt n).

Thanx,
Jim/W3FA
