I finally got round to do so. I've also included the changes suggested by Yoshio Imai (reload functionality).
Hopefully, it is useful for someone...
  66089   Tue Dec 2 01:10:39 2008 Question weiluolwsy711@gmail.comQuestionLinux How to attach screen shot in elog

I want to know if there were some way to insert a screen shot directly into the log book instead of going through the "save-attach" procedure. i.e. add some plug in button to do this under Linux?

Or, can I just make a plain log file "xxxx.log" and put it into the directory? Will that work?

Thanks

You cannot directly paste a screen shot into an elog entry. Use HoverSnap (Windows) or ksnapshot (linux) to produce directly an image file, then you need only two mouse clicks (browse and select file). There is also an Add-On for FireFox called "dragdropupload" which can be used for drag-and-drop a file into the attachment file selector.

 I see. But what I want to do now is writing a script to make a elog entry, is that possible? I mean, I don't know if the log entry I generated could be recognized by elog.  e.g. the following text is generated by me, no through elog, is there a way to let them shown on elog?

 For what you need you can use the "elog" utility, as described in https://midas.psi.ch/elog/userguide.html at the bottom. Using the "-f" option you can add attachments there.

 Got it! This is exactly what I need, thanks a lot!

We have an auto-incrementing reference attribute defined as:

# RFC

Format RFC = 0,narrowattribname,narrowattribvalue,60,60
Preset RFC = RFC-######
Preset On Duplicate RFC = RFC-######
Tooltip RFC = A unique reference will be generated for this Request For Change

We also have a "Created by/when" attribute.  Looking at the values this seems to be set when the user clicks "New" whereas the time stamp that appears on the line after the  $@MID@$ seems to be set when the user clicks "Submit".

# Created

Format Created = 0,attribname,attribvalue,70,100
Preset Created = $long_name ($short_name) on $date
Preset On Duplicate Created = $long_name ($short_name) on $date

Every once in a while the incrementing stops working and the number 'sticks' or misses some out.  It looks as if it might be because multiple people are adding entries concurrently.  Could the occasion where there is a gap in the sequence (171-174) be where people abandoned changes (clicked on "Back") after having numbers allocated?  Here is a list showing the discrepancies.

 Hi

This is to let you know that the increment problem has just happened again.

Item 206 has timestamp (from the line after $@MID@$) of 11:59:45 and "created" attribute timestamp of 11:29

overlapping with this, a second item 206 has timestamp of 12:04:02 and "created" attribute of 11:53

So, both users were entering information between 11:53 and 11:59:45 and both picked up the same increment number.

There's no easy solution tho, is there? If you pick up the increment number at the start so it can be displayed on screen and ensure uniqueness then, if a user cancels a new entry you end up with "holes" in the sequence.  If you pick it up at the end then you can't display it until the user presses submit.

regards

Steve

I finally found some time to address this problem. It is indeed related to the fact that the new number gets assigned when you click on 'New'. So if two people edit the new entries at the same time, they get assigned the same number. To fix this problem, I made the tag generation work with the 'Subst' command, which is evaluated at the entry submission, and not when you click on 'New'. So to make this work, you need to upgrade to SVN revision 2152 and then put into your configuration file: 

Attributes = Author, RFC, Subject
Preset RFC = <will be assigned when you submit>
Preset on duplicate RFC = <will be assigned when you submit>
Locked attributes = RFC  Subst RFC = RFC-######

I also changed the documentation accordingly.
