Re: [wsjt-devel] Save Log in Callsign-specific Location

2018-06-27 Thread Joshua (Josh) Lotfi
Thank you all for your tips and feedback and for such a quick
response. I actually agree with Tom after some further thought; it's
probably not a terrific idea to change the filename of the log(s) just
as a poor man's convenience hack and potentially break existing
scripts when there's other ways to just get around it (thanks Claude
and Bill for those tips). While I may have not put together a
particularly useful tidbit of code this time, I hope I can concoct a
useful (and more substantial!) contribution to this wonderful program
in the future.

Cheers and 73

I would say B & C. Seems like it might be also be pretty useful for the hams 
with mobile and other country calls.

C could probably be in the preferences windows though, as most people using the 
function probably would do so almost always.

Hi Josh,

one simple solution is to start WSJT-X with a "-r callsign" command line 
option, this will cause each operator to have a completely separate 
settings and log files directory. You would need to shut down WSJT-X and 
restart for each operator but that doesn't seem much harder than 
changing the operator callsign. A few minutes work pre-contest setting 
up different icons for each operator would make the operation easy to use.

It's really simple to filter out while selection according to a
callsign. E.g.:

grep -Pi 'DJ0OT' wsjtx_log.adi > whatyouwant.adi

Further, you just have to copy the header of the ADIF file to the output
file.

Best wishes,
Claude (DJ0OT)

I know it’s after the event but in case you need to manipulate ADFI files in 
the future have a look at:

http://www.dxshell.com/adif-master.html

It allows you too sort, cut, split ADFI files - pretty cool

Can we add 

D) Leave well alone 

So apps and scripts that look for wsjt_log.adi  will still continue working no 
matter what GUI options are messed with.

[wsjt-devel] Save Log in Callsign-specific Location

2018-06-26 Thread Joshua (Josh) Lotfi
Greetings all,

During the course of operating this past ARRL Field Day, a few other
hams and I became a little frustrated with the process of uploading
logs of FT-8 contacts, with wsjt_log.adi containing all logs for all
callsigns despite the fact that each station needs its own separate
log for contesting purposes. Our solution thus far has been our text
editor's search functions and "copy and paste". Not elegant.

So I cloned into the repo, made some changes, and now WSJT-X saves the
log as wsjt_log_[call].adi . So, for example, if W1AW, K1JT, and
KB2GSD all operated FT-8 from the same software install, then the
program's log directory would contain the following files:
wsjt_log_k1jt.adi
wsjt_log_kb2gsd.adi
wsjt_log_w1aw.adi

I know it's just a simple little change, but it's convenient, at least
for us. So I just wanted to know if you all:
A) Don't care.
B) Want me to push this tiny little adjustment to git
