[WriteLog] DXTelnet with WriteLog?

Jim,

My "dxt2wl.exe" is located inside DXTelnet folder as
C:\DXTelnet\DXT2WL\dxt2wl.exe.
I have not tried to put the "exe" file out of DXTelnet folder, but think it
should work.
You should be careful to put "dxt2wl.exe" the same folder as F9 key tells...
If you have to change the link in DXTelnet, you can do it with new location.

I do not have problems to link DXTelnet to WriteLog and DX4WIN. Of course
each time I change the program (DX4WIN and WL) I have to change the setting
of DX-Hunter Installation Patch in configuration of DXTelnet.

And remember, that the spots will be available for WL or DX4WIN if you open
the small programs "dxt4win.exe" or "dxt2wl.exe" before start using the
general logging program and its DX Spot Window.

Best 73's
