I have been doing this with multiple log files. It works well for the
contest. However, after the contest is completed I want to merge to a
master log file for the QTH in order to do inbound/outbound QSL accounting
and DXCC analysis.
The merge of log files is a pain the way it currently is setup, because you
end up with a new file under a new name. Try to merge multiple files at
once and you end up with a lot of intermediate files and a really long name
for the merged file.
I could manage this if it were possible to merge from the command line, but
its not, so I find it inconvenient. I was thinking about making a patch
for command line merges, but I haven't had the time to do so yet.
If such a patch were made, would it be useful to others?
Thanks.

This is where the multiple log file feature of xlog really shines. If
you keep your contests/past years of logging in separate files, just
close the ones you don't need, as search only works on open files.

Graeme off screen I guess they are read first.

Hi Nick,
Thanks for the constructive feedback!
It looks pretty simple to pick exactly one column to be the sort
column, and the CALL column is the one used by the code today. It
is a simple modification to make the DATE column as the sort column.
You could do that yourself if you feel comfortable with such things.
It is in the src/gui_b4window.c file (look for line 192, 225, and
226, or I can send you a patch upon request).
However, it appears that it is not possible to make multiple columns
sortable.
Notice that if the log already contained KB1OI and KB1OIQ, and one
filled in KB1OI in the New QSO Call box, both would show in the
Worked Before window. I'm guessing that's the rationale for
sorting on the CALL column.
If I change the default behavior, those who like it as it is will
probably be unhappy. I could theoretically make this a preference
setting, but it would still be one or the other (sort by DATE or by
CALL but not both).
I'd like to give other interested parties a chance to offer their
opinion.
73,
Andy
