First, Thanks to Don for the location of the V12 manual. I missed that.  At
444 pages, not exactly light reading.

Second, I have a couple of different writelog.ini files that I swap back
and forth for CW and SSB. The changes are significant enough that I find it
easier to simply rename the files rather than change the individual entries
all the time.
 writelogCW.ini => writelog.ini

Can I still do that in V12?
Having writelog.ini as an editing tool rather than a working file doesn't
seem to make any difference if the end result is the same as before.

Thanks,  Alan  AD6E / KH6TU
