I realized that I had an old link to CVS when I checked your previous posting, so I updated that link like 30 min ago. That's why you got a new one.

  1725   Fri Feb 24 16:40:38 2006 Question Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comQuestionAll2.5.9eLog Version number as eLog attribute?
When a footer is used (via Bottom text = <filename>) eLog no longer displays the eLog version number at the bottom. Is it possible to somehow expose the version/revision as an eLog attribute or have the version still display even when a replacement footer is specified?

Thanks!

I added that feature, but will not be able to commit it before the next weekend.

  1743   Thu Mar 2 23:32:25 2006 Question Steve Jonessteve.jones@freescale.comRequestAll2.6.1Top Groups and logbook directorys
I am re-working our elog setup and am seriously looking at using the "Top Group" feature. What I like best is the ability to create [global] configurations for a group (or type) of logbook when I host multiple types on the same server. I also like being able to specify a different password file, etc.

A limitation that I run into is I would really like the actual directory names used for storing the logbooks for the different types to be identical - which isn't possible when all logbooks (regardless of context) exist at the same directory level. For example, I might have:

3 physical locations: ABC, DEF, GHI

For each location I want to maintain two *groups* of logbooks - CircuitTests and BoardTests. What I would like to end up with is:
- CircuitTests
----ABC
----DEF
----GHI
- BoardTests
----ABC
----DEF
----GHI

Under current elog this is not possble as far as I know. Since each logbook is a physical directory, each logbook requires a unique name. The concept of a named [global] area fills the bill for all things but it would be nifty if one could do:
[global circuittests]
Logbook dir = circuittestlogbooks

[global boardtests]
Logbook dir = boardtestlogbooks

I suppose the poorman's way of doing this is for each logbook to do the following:
[ABC]
Subdir = boardtestlogbooks/ABC
[DEF]
Subdir = boardtestlogbooks/DEF
[GHI]
Subdir = boardtestlogbooks/GHI

or something like that, but I was hopic for something a little more integrated - like creating the hierarchical stuff via the GUI. Anyway, this probably sounds like a major overhaul, which definitely wouldn't be worth it unless I have completely missed something glaringly obvious.

Thanks!

Is it possible to allow $attribute substitutions in the "Comment =" option for logbooks?
  1746   Sat Mar 4 05:17:14 2006 Idea Glenn Horton-Smithgahs@phys.ksu.eduRequestAll2.6.1-1668require smileys to have whitespace on either side?
It would be nice if elog would only interpret something as a smiley if it is surrounded by whitespace. It can be particularly annoying that an 8 followed by a right paren becomes a "cool" smiley -- e.g., a parenthetical reference to event eighteen (18) becomes mangled... [That was "18" inside the parens.]

Is there already a way to solve this issue (other than always previewing your entries and adding spaces before parans)? Is the feature hard to implement?
