Release information v3.26.0 (Mar 26, 2009)

- Partner window : Delete item added to the contextual menu. You can
   also use a Ctrl-Dbl-Click a la Bandmap. No confirmation asked.

- RTTY windows : The middle mouse button acts the same as the left
   mouse button in the stream display, except that selection (if any)
   is stacked in the Partner window.

- RTTY and CW : New variables.

   $CURRENT (or $CURRENTCALL) : Sends the callsign of the current QSO
   *despite* the presence of a $CR (always executed on message keypress)
   later in the message.

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

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

   $GRABPARTNER : Grabs the first callsign from the Partner window and
   insert it in the callsign field. The exchange guessing is performed
   (or not) according to the manual callsign entering setting (Tools /
   Data entry / Exchange guessing).

   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 $F2 (w/correction)

   or

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

   ($F2 is supposed to be the sent report)

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

   $PREV TU NOW $LOGGED $F2    ($F2 is supposed to be the sent report)

   1/ Use the enter key to silently 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.

- Yaesu FT-450 supported. Tnx F8IJV, F6DEX.

- Yaesu FT-950 supported. Tnx EA8AY.

- ARRL DX and ARRL 10 : KH6 and KL7 stations are now exclusively
   identified as being not located in HI and AK by the CTY*.DAT file.
   Tnx AD1C and G4MJS.

- CW and RTTY keyers : $FREQnn (like $FREQ160, $FREQ80 etc.) variables
   added. Sends the freq of the primary radio of the first networked
   station found on this band with the following priority : R, R+, M,
   and M+. In addition, in CW, if the frequency is round, no decimal
   point (or kHz) are send. If not, the decimal point is replaced by
   an R. Ex 14021.0 is sent as 14021 and 14021.1 is sent as 14021R1.

- Status Window (Alt-J) : To improve consistency across the software,
   new contextual menu item to Pass a frequency to the Sub VFO of the
   active radio (if the radio permits). An Alt-Dbl-Click on the
   frequency works too, like in the bandmaps windows.

- Sked Window (Alt-B) : To improve consistency across the software,
   an Alt-Dbl-Click on a sked passes its frequency to the Sub VFO of
   the active radio (if the radio permits), like in the bandmaps.
   windows.

- CW / RTTY : The leading zeros setting is now different for each
   mode, but the text commands (LZ/NOLZ etc.) remain the same.

   mixed mode. The Cabrillo output has been consequently updated.
   Tnx F5IN.
