[WT-support] WT 3.10.0

I want to apologize for these remarks.  Once again I used REPLY instead of
FORWARD.

It was not my intent to be insulting.  I was just joking about cultural
differences in approaches to a problem.


After looking at the display a while longer, I decided that the problem is
that if LEFT-ALIGNED is chosen for the HEADER, then I would expect the Data
Under the Header to also be LEFT-ALIGNED.


Example:


Win-Test		Everything Left-Aligned

MODE			MODE			

 SSB			SSB
  CW			CW
RTTY			RTTY


I've been compiling a VHF.DTB file for use in the June VHF Contest, and I
note that many of the logs I've received have has all of the information
LEFT-ALIGNED.  The logs were produced using a variety of logging program.
