I have asked Fred Pacquier who maintains the web pages to put something on,
but he hasn't replied.
Basically you simply run "elconv" in the directory where all the *.log files
live. The only option is the "-v" flag for verbose output. If you have
several directories with log files, you run it once in each directory. |

Well, that's how it should be. All other systems I know like Windows NT
Login, Linux login etc. are case-sensitive, so we should follow that standard. |

Weired, the icon is displayed in the search page just as "up.gif", and the
elogd server should get this from the current themes/default/ directory. Try
http://midas.psi.ch/elogdemo/Forum/up.gif . So where do you get your two
slashes from? |

I vaguely remember there was once a problem with that date. So can you please
try again with a recent version of ELOG? |
