Substitution was not enabled for email addresses, but I added this for you. It's in SVN revision 1712 if you build elog yourself from the SVN, otherwise it will be contained in the next release. |
Great! Thanks very much. And quick too! Any idea when the next release will be available? Is there a mailing list I can sign up to to get notifications? |

 | Ben Shepherd | bjs54'at'dl.ac.uk | Request | Linux | Windows | 2.6.2-1714 | Append option for elog.exe |
Hi,
Would it be possible to add an 'append' option to the elog.exe client program? I would like to be able to write a simple script for adding images into a logbook - i.e. right-click in Windows and click 'add to log', or click a button in LabVIEW or Matlab and have an image immediately added to the last log entry. There would also have to be an option to either return a list of entry IDs, or just append to the last entry. Is this possible/likely?
cheers

Can we please have an option to turn off the thing that changes smileys automatically into pictures?
cheers

I realise that's possible, but things are getting converted into smileys that aren't intended to be smileys. Specifically, when I enter a question in brackets, the end bracket is converted into a smiley. (Like this?) should be (Like this\?). That is very annoying, and to be honest, I don't need the smileys. An option to switch them off would be the best thing. |

I agree that the ?) smiley is annoying, so I changed it to ?-) which should prevent it from showing up in questions in brackets. I updated this server (you can see the effect above), the modification is committed to subversion. |
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!

Yes, but if you use -e "text" it replaces the whole entry with "text". So an append option would be really useful... |

| Ben Shepherd | bjs54@dl.ac.uk | Request | All | 2.6.2-1714 | 'Inline' button for attachments |
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
