 | Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Info | All | 2.6.0 | New ELOG version 2.6.0 |
Dear ELOG users,
I'm happy to announce the release of ELOG version 2.6.0. After a long period of beta testing, all functions are now sufficiently stable for a public release. The major new feature is the introduction of the ELCode tags. They are similar to the well known BBCode tags, and let you format an elog entry. It is now also possible to embed inline images in an elog entry  , which are even sent in email notifications.
So have fun,
Stefan |

Maybe your additional accent. The attribute list contains Derniere Image, but in your first logbook you say Type Dernière image with accent grave, so this are not the same words. |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Info | | SVN 1579 | Shell substitution, especially interesting for running online experiments |
Shell substitution has been introduced in an experimental state of the current SVN version of ELOG. It woks such that the subsititution list can contain $shell(<argument>) commands. The <argument> is passed to the shell of the operating system and the result is captured and subsituted. This is handy for online experiments, where one wants to pass information automatically to elog. Assume that there is a file /tmp/runnumber containing the current run number of the experiment. All one needs to put the current run number in an attribute "Run number" is the following line in the configuration file:
Preset Run number = $shell(cat /tmp/runnumber)
This subsitution works also for the main text body. Following option will put a calendar of the current month into the text body:
Preset text = $shell(cal)
note that shell subsitution works both on Windows and Unix, the "cat" and "cal" commands are however only present under Unix, but "cat" can be replaced with its Windows counterpart "type". |

| Stefan Ritt | stefan.ritt@psi.ch | Info | | 2.6.0 | Howto insert screen dumps into an elog entry |
With the new ELCode tags, one can insert screen dumps pretty easy into elog entries. I personally use HoverSnap 0.8 under Windows, there are similar tools under Linux. HoverSnap puts a "Capture.jpg" file in a selectable directoy when you press PrintScreen, then you can instert this file with the  button. Here is such a screendump example:

I fixed that in the SVN revision 1583. The fix will be contained in the upcoming version 2.6.1. |

| Bertram Metz wrote: | The duplicate command duplicates the entry text itself, but it does not duplicate attachments. If attachments in a duplicated entry are deleted, the original attachment files are deleted as well and cannot be accessed anymore within the original entry.
My suggestion is to copy the attached files too and to use file names of the copies in the duplicated entry. |
I chaned it such that attachments are removed from the duplicated entry, which was easier to implement. I hope this is ok as well. The change is in SVN revision 1584. |

To my knowledge you need a VirtualHost entry, plus a "URL = http://exo-elog.stanford.edu" entry in elogd.cfg |
