[WriteLog] FWD: Feature idea [out-of-band notification]

You may be right but why have to open and run two programs and use obviously
more memory and resources (remember that's what chokes windows programs)
than one program with almost similar features.
A few filtering options would not use the same memory at two programs.

I loaded Writelog and DXTelnet and could see that I obviously used more than
Writelog alone with a cluster connection.

As DXTelnet uses X amount of memory and resources in it's interface which is
not necessary in Writelog it seems to be a duplication of code.

And I love DXTelnet, been a registered user since WAY back. I just use it
alone.
