Re: [Tlf-devel] Cabrillo export truncating exchange (comment) after first space

[Thomas Beierlein]

Hi Nate,

thanks for the files, they were helpful. 
I found the problem for the wrong format, but do not understand where
the reason came from.

It turns out that there is a problem in the parsing logic for the
log lines. It expects to have two entries for RST sent and received. As
ARRL-FD (and also SS) do not use RST in the log we introduced the
NO_RST keyword. That results in '---' written in the log instead of 599
or so. Your logs miss that entry even while NO_RST is in the rule file.

From your log:
 40CW  23-Jun-18 18:08 0001  W5YA                     3A NM 

From one of my logs:
 20CW  12-Jul-13 12:30 0001  LA3BB          ---  --- 123    

So the question is: Why your log misses the --- for RST? Looking into
the code that feature is there from 2014 on. Maybe you used an really
old version of TLF?

Any ideas?
