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... |
'Inline' button for attachments, posted by Ben Shepherd on Tue Oct 10 15:32:21 2006

Hi,
It would be good if when you uploaded an image as an attachment, there was a button next to it that pasted the code [img]elog:1972/1[/img] into the log entry. This way, it would be more easy to have inline images in a log entry.
cheers

Just hit that button:
and it does exactly what you want. |
