As a long time TRLog devotee, I take exception to the characterization given 
here of the editting issue being a problem or a mistake, and that it is something 
on the to-do list of things to *fix*. It is the nature of the choice Tree made to log 
directly to a text file and not a binary file that is kept in memory. It is not an 
issue of Tree and others not making many errors during contests, although it 
wouldn't surprise me if they might not make a few less than ol' ham handed L 
Rod.

But it is not a bug, a fault, a mistake, a shortcoming, or any other negative 
characteristic of the program. Life is full of choices. If you want to edit your 
whole log anytime during the contest, choose a logger that will do that. If you 
want the ultimate in flexibility and capability in your logger, then choose TRLog.
