Thanks a lot! I'm going to pester you though - it would be really good if there was an option to turn them off completely. Surely it can't be a huge amount of work... ?

Unfortunately it is not simple under Windows to extend the right-click functionality. What I do is to use a snapshot program (like HoverSnap). Triggered with a definable hot key, it grabs a region of the screen and puts it into a GIF file. Then you can attach it to an elog. I agree it takes a couple of clicks, but it's still a quick thing.


I think you misunderstand me. I was asking whether it would be possible for the elog command-line client program to have an "append to existing entry" option. That program's actually just what I need though - thanks!

It's not the amount of work, it the intention to minimize the number of options. If you want a switch for the smileys, the next one wants a switch for automatic hot-linking (like http://...), the next one wants that only certain ELCode options are interpreted, not others, and then we will have a mess. By changing the ?-) definition I hope I have solved most cases without another flag. So either one has the comple ELCode set, or non. In the past I had many suggestions of new flags, which I could solve somehow otherwise. If I would not have done that, the manual would be twice as long by now...

The elog command-line program has a -e switch to edit existing entries, but you need to know the ID of the entry.

Yes, but if you use -e "text" it replaces the whole entry with "text". So an append option would be really useful...
icon13.gif   Date format in Threaded display, posted by deletoille on Tue Oct 17 12:14:27 2006 Elog1.JPGElog2.JPG
hello,

I have a problem with the Date format in the Threaded display. The Date Format appears normally in the full and the summary displays but not in the threaded one.
I have found a similar Entry in the forum posted by Steve Jones on Friday July 16 16:53:01 2004 and you answered :" That should be fixed by the current version. Please update."
Did I make a mistake?

Here is a part of my program:

Show Attributes = Date evenement, Heure evenement, Auteur, Icone, Groupe
Time format = %d/%m/%Y, %T
Type Date evenement= datetime
Start page = ?rsort= Date evenement

Thanks in advance

I think "date format" and "time format" are different tags.
you may try to use date format here.

That fix for Steve Jones was slightly different, it had to do with substitutions in threaded display. I fixed yours now in revision 1734, so give it a try.

Salut,

Stefan
