If you do not want text display in the summary view, add
Summary lines = 0
into your config file.

I have v2.6.0-beta and v2.6.0-beta3 running side by side on the same server and notice also a big difference in speed, beta3 being much slower. |
This is still a mystery to me, since on all machines I try the speed is fine. I'm still waiting for some debugging analysis from users which have this problem. If I cannot reproduce it, I cannot fix it. |

After upgrading to v2.6.0-beta4 everything works fine now.

2do: i think it's worth testing how does it work whet charset specified for a separate logbook overrides globally specidied charset

The documentation clearly states that the "charset" option is under the [global] section. I put it there since it does not make much sense to have separate charsets for separate logbooks. Or do you have one Russian, one Japanese and one Swedish logbook on the same server? Maybe for an international language school 
I can easily put it into the individual logbook's config, but only if more than one person requests this. |

| 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 |

| 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:
