[Trlog] INPUT CONFIG FILE and POST

Hi Fred,

I make extensive use of the INPUT CONFIG FILE command also, but I 
always leave the 'standard' entries in my LOGCFG.DAT file for exactly 
this reason - my LOGCFG.DAT file looks like this:

MY CALL = VA7IRL
CONTEST = IOTA
DISPLAY MODE = COLOR
INPUT CONFIG FILE = IOTA.ICF

When setting up for a new contest, I go through the new contest 
'wizard', enter my call, pick the contest and select 'Color' when 
asked. I answer 'N' to everything else - everything else is in a 
contest-specific config file (I also use the STDCFG.DAT file for stuff 
that doesn't change from one contest to another, but that's another 
story).

It would be nice if POST read INPUT CONFIG FILE and STDCFG.DAT the same 
way that TR-Log did.....

Hope this helps.

73 de VA7IRL,
