[WT-support] Lanceur d'appels SSB

Umm... pretty old vesion ;-)

[English readers : Philippe suggest to apply the autorepeat feature to 
voice messages diffrent than the F1 one. His goal is to record several 
operators or use different langages]

For now, only the F1 message has the autorepeat property. We will 
consider to optionally add it for other messages.

We intend to implement more multi-op capabilities in the future : We are 
thinking of different 'profiles' for each operator. The voice files will 
then be swapped during the operator shift.

As a workaround, for now, you can easily use the eXecute feature 
(Ctrl-X) to change voice files on-the-fly, in a multi-op situation :

- Use WT and record all messages with op1 voice.
- Duplicate the msg1.wav etc... files and rename them msg1.op1 etc... 
(Win will complaint, but don't bother).
- Record the messages for op2, and repeat the rename process above 
(msg1.op2 etc...).
- Do the same for every op (msg1.op3 etc...).
- Now, create a batch file in the WT directory (with a simple text 
editor), named OP1.BAT, and enter :

copy *.op1 *.wav
exit

- Create a batch file for every op : OP2.BAT etc...
- Now, in WT, if you enter OP1 in the callsign field and hit Ctrl-X 
(stands for eXecute), the OP1.BAT will run, and the current voice files 
will be the ones recorded by op1. If op2 comes in and want to use 'his' 
voice files, he just has to enter OP2 and Ctrl-X. It is that simple.

[English readers : Philippe requests a better sampling rate for the 
sound files]

The 8 kHz sampling rate has been choosen for the small files size, and 
because the phone bandwidth which is pretty narrow. For now, you can't 
modify this value.

[English readers : If files were recorded with a better sampling rate 
with a third-party software, could it be possible to play them in WT ?]

It's already on our todo list, as some users had the same request 
because they have their own recordings since a long time !
