[WT-support] Wt problem with Cabrillo file

[Dave Sharred]

Morning Jim and Bob

Thanks for the comments.

I guess that I have forgotten the old CT command of WRITELOG ; and just
checked the drop down box to produce the output I needed.

It sounds like there is good reasoning for doing things this way.

It was definitely a senior moment on my side - I was under pressure to
finish log checking this side, before a family holiday !

I guess I won't forget this lesson in a hurry !!

Plus, what if you were editing the Soapbox in the Cabrillo file before
you sent it.  You re-open your log for some reason, exit the program,
and Bam!  You've lost all the comments you had typed in.
