[WT-support] New features just added to dev. version

[Ron Castro]

With this latest feature, I can't think of anything else I need for RTTY on any other mode...except, I would still like to have "Run" switch to "S/P" when you tune off the run frequency.

  Laurent just quietly added a bunch of new message variables to the development version of Win-Test, including some that will make the "NOW" message a possibility.

  I encourage RTTY types to try it and make a constructive suggestions.  Multi-multi's using the partner window also might be able to use it.

  From http://download.win-test.com/nightly/release.txt:

  - RTTY windows : The middle-click acts the same as the left click in
    the stream display, except that selection is stacked in the Partner
    window.

  - RTTY and CW : New variables.

    $CURRENT (or $CURRENTCALL) : Insert the callsign of the current QSO
    *despite* if a $CR (that it always executed on message keypress) is
    contained later in the message.

    $NEXT (or $NEXTCALL) : Send the callsign of the next QSO line when
    the $CR is included in the message.

    $PREV (or $PREVCALL) : Send the callsign of the previous QSO line.

    $GRABPARTNER : Grabs the first callsign from the Partner window and
    insert it in the callsign field.

    To summarize, you can now enter a QSO (with correction or not),
    grab another callsign from the Partner window and send his report
    in one keystroke, by using :

    $CORRECT TU $CR NOW $GRABPARTNER $NEXT $GUESSEXCH $F2 (w/correction)

    or

    $CURRENT TU $CR NOW $GRABPARTNER $NEXT $GUESSEXCH $F2 (full call)

    If you want to manually grab a callsign from the Partner window
    you can use :

    $PREV TU NOW $LOGGED $F2

    1/ Use enter to enter the current Q
    2/ Grab the next callsign from the Partner wnd (dbl-click or Alt-n)
    3/ Send the above message

  - Custom variables support added. Mostly designed for the DXPed mode,
    this feature allows to create custom variables and set the value
    very quickly. Example : $REGION or $UP for a split up value.

    Use the Options / CW (or RTTY) / Custom variables... menu to set
    the names and the value of these variables to be used in your CW or
    RTTY messages. You can also use the VARIABLES text command.

    You can also easily set a variable value by entering its name in
    the callsign and "Enter". WARNING : Don't chose a variable name
    that is already used or it won't work...
    
    Tnx K5AC @ K5D.
