icon3.gif   Example scripts how to migrate or combine logbooks, posted by Roger Kalt on Mon Nov 18 16:58:21 2019 run_modif.shgenerate_import_llrf_fwd.sh
Attached the shell scripts using awk and sed how I have migrated two separated logbooks into one single and how I re-adjusted certain attributes.
icon4.gif   Trouble on Catalina, posted by John S. Haggerty on Fri Nov 22 02:55:50 2019 
I decided to rebuild elog 3.1.4 in Catalina (MacOS 10.15.1), XCode 11.2.1.  As in previous builds, I needed to add to the Makefile pointers to openssl:

CFLAGS += -I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include

LIBS += -L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib

The Makefile is kind of obsolete, I switched to CMake. So the Makefiel is mostly there as backup. To compile elog, do

elog$ mkdir build; cd build
elog/build$ cmake ..

Greetings!

We've been successfully running nearly a dozen separate logbooks on independent
laptops -- all of them are running elogd as a Windows service. This works well, since I've also set up auto recovery options in the event that the

Sorry -- I somehow selected the wrong OS in my original message. Asleep at the wheel again.

Wow, having these color signal lamps really looke like a cute solution, made me laugh.

No, there is no other way than the Execute new thing. I have
given up long time ago to use Windows services, because they are very hard to debug and very limited. So at our site everything runs under Linux.

Well, there I was, eating Thanksgiving dinner, when suddenly, it hit me (no, not indigestion).  I can write a simple program that parses out
the latest "Status" from the most recent logbook file -- a relatively easy task, since it's a text file.  This solution avoids
having to execute a shell command at all.  GOOOOOOAAAAAAL!!! 
icon5.gif   How to selectively use Top/Bottom Text JavaScript., posted by John on Wed Dec 4 03:06:50 2019 
I think I know what the answer(s) will be already.. that I will need to address this in JS. I don't want each screen to run/show the same code, other
than the ones I want to.  AND I do not want to have to create a custom form for each 'menu option' to achieve this (if possible).

Thanx,

In JS, you have access to the browser URL via window.location. So you can write conditional code depending on the actual elog command.

icon5.gif   Change column width in list mode?, posted by David Wallis on Mon Dec 2 23:28:28 2019 
In some of our logbooks, some columns are very narrow, which makes their content difficult to read. I have tried adding a custom css file like this:

listframe td:nth-child(3) {
   width: 250px;

You need

.listframe td:nth-child(3) {
   min-width: 250px;

icon4.gif   text wrapping broken in firefox, posted by Devin Bougie on Thu Dec 19 16:28:06 2019 
When creating new logbook entries, recent versions of firefox somehow ignore the message width setting.

For example, configure a logbook with:

As an example, I created this same entry in the demo logbook using Safari.  As you can see there, the message is wrapped at the width that I set the text
entry box.

icon4.gif   editor hangs intermittently, posted by Sara Vanini on Fri Jan 24 14:56:04 2020 
Hello,

I'm using ELOG with Ubuntu 19. When I create or edit an entry and I start writing, it hangs for few seconds, resumes, and all over again
intermittently.
