My main issue with using an external application to flag message is
that application flags a message the user will have to fine that
message in WSJTX to take action on the message. My logging program
does that today. There is a lag in when the message appears in WSJTX
to when the application flags a message. The user then has to fine the
flag message in WSJTX. I have found that the lag is large enough the
by the time it is flagged in the external application, the original
message in WSJTx is off the screen. This is the case on very busy band
like 20 & 40.
John,
is an external application cannot derive the information you wish to
indicate within a few milliseconds then it probably has no place in the
WSJT-X implementation either. The flow of decodes must not be delayed by
any noticeable amount. An external application driven by the WSJT-X UDP
Decode messages should be able to reply to each decode, when relevant,
with a DecodeHighlight message within that deadline. The UDP latency is
less than milliseconds when both applications are running on the same host.
