--------------------------------------------------

4.31.0 (June 28, 2020)

- Lua API version string is 1.5.0

- Lua : wtApp:PostMessage, wtApp:SendMessage and wtApp:GetLastError
   added. Tnx F6BEE for inspiration.

   See description and syntax in
   http://download.win-test.com/v4/lua/LuaApiDoc.txt

- ARRL FD : Covid-19 rule exception : Class D stations may work all
   other Field Day stations, including other Class D stations,
   for points. Tnx K6ZB.

- Log Checking Report (LCR) review added in the Tools / Check log
   menu.

   For now, only the following LCR are processed :

   - CQWW DX
   - CQWW WPX
   - ARRL DX
   - ARRL 10m
   - IARU HF
   - EU HF
   - SAC
   - KOS
   - REF HF
   - VHF+ contests if adjudicated with LX

   Mainly, because these LCR are public, or because I had one ;-)

   Any textual (or html) LCR can theorically be implemented,
   as long as I have access to a sample.

   For various reasons, sometimes the "Download LCR" may not work.
   In that case, try to download the LCR with your browser
   and save it in a convenient location (the log directory
   is the best choice). You can "attach" it to your log
   by using the "Save" button in the report dialog.

- Dx-Cluster window (Alt-T) : Number of Macros increased to 8.
   Tnx PA2A.

- Dx-Cluster macro editor : Window enlarged, and the edit field now
   wraps to improve readibility. Tnx PA2A.

- The merge dialog now displays "compact paths".

- NRAU Baltic mults list updated. Tnx LB3RE.

- Review of the exchanges databases files to prevent mixing different
   exchanges between contests. Also, if a contest uses only a part of
   a database file, the rest is kept untouched if the database is
   updated with Win-Test.

- Depending on the contest and, if it applies, whose side you're
   on (DX side or domestic), the callsigns from the master file (namely
   MASTER.SCP/DTA or HF.DTB/SCP) are filtered to display only relevant
   results in the Check Partial and N+1 windows.

- The master file in use can now be directly updated from the
   Internet (like the CTY files) by using the Options / Data files
   / Master file menu, or by using the "Used File list" item in
   the contextual menu of the Check Partial or N+1 windows.

   Note : The recommended default master file to use is MASTER.SCP,
   maintained by Stu K6TU (http://http://supercheckpartial.com/).

   Reminder : You can also use contest-specific master files
   (recommended only for minor national or regional contests)
   named after the list located at
   http://download.win-test.com/files/checkPartial/%23_READ_ME_%23.TXT

   These files do not replace the default master file, but complement
   it at runtime.

- In the contest settings dialog, contests no longer taking place
   have been removed from the list.

- New REBOOT (or RESTARTPC) text command added. It closes the current
   log and restarts the host PC. Tnx F8CRH, F6BEE.

- When the exchanges database is updated, a notification message
   is displayed at the bottom of log. Tnx DL6RAI.
