[Skimmertalk] placing calls on skimmer display from external source?

[Pete Smith]

This capability is already available for Writelog users - W2RF has 
written the necessary hooks to connect it to Skimmer and display the log 
status of callsigns that Skimmer identifies, based on what Writelog 
tells it.  I don't know how hard that would be to do with other logging 
programs.
