[WriteLog] SETUP - CW/RTTY/SSB MESSAGE FORMAT

[Gary AL9A]

John,

There are several options for sending the serial number from F2, depending 
upon what you want for the output.

A plain '%' sign in the macro will send the exact serial number as indicated 
by WL.

A '%n', where n is from 1 -5,  will send the serial number with required 
number of leading "T" characters in Morse or "0" digits in RTTY,  to make it 
a n digit number.  Use this for contests where a three digit serial number 
is required.

A '%N' followed b an optional digit n will send the serial number as a n 
digit number, but will use cut numbers if you have a [Cut-Numbers] section 
defined in your writelog.ini file.  For example, 0=T will send the letter T 
instead of a 0 for as many places as required to make a three digit number. 
But, it will also send T anywhere if finds a 0 in the serial number.  So the 
number 1008 will be sent as 1TT8.  I don't particularly like receiving that 
so I never send it, but your opinion may differ.

Hi Fellow Writelog Users.
I have a problem- after a number of years I reinstalled WL again on a new 
Hard Drive and have run into a problem, or two.Have largely resolved the 
more demanding (mentally ones !!) and am keen to clear the remaining one, 
being inputting the correctly formatted data into the F2  MESSAGE box". I 
have mislaid my original installation notes an would be obliged if some kind 
person would advise the inputting data format for the following :-

- data relative to an RST, Ascending Serial Number situation, e.g. 599001, 
599002, etc.

Thanks in  advance to your assistance, which will be really appreciated.
