[Xlog-discussion] xlog-1.2 released

[Joop Stakenborg]

* Import support for the OH1AA logbook. Tested by Jarmo, OH1MRR.
* A keyerwindow has been added, opened from the 'Tools -> Keyer' menu.
This is a simple interface to cwdaemon and will allow you to run a
contest. It features programmable function keys, macro's, switch between
CQ and S&P mode, an auto increment counter and short numbers. See the
MANUAL for a description.
* Ctrl-H opens help, Ctrl-R the keyerwindow.
* The list of hamlib-rigs in the preferences dialog is now sorted.
Thanks to Jean-Luc F5IBH for proposing.
* You can use the 'del' key to delete a selected QSO and the 'insert'
key to add a QSO.
* We now have slightly different icons for the worked before dialog and 
the keyer window.
* A safe backup method has been added, you can now select a backup
directory in the 'Logs' page of the preferences dialog. This directory
can be on another drive or on a network mounted directory. Proposed by
Matt, GW0VNR.
* When using hamlib, only the needed backend is loaded at startup. This
saves about 2 Mb of memory compared to the old method, which would load
all backends.
* When using hamlib it is now possible to use the FCC emission
designators for modes. Check the option in the hamlib page of the
preferences dialog. Another proposal by Matt, GW0VNR.
* When selecting 'Logs -> Merge' or Ctrl-M you are presented with a
dialog which can be used to merge 2 logs.
* The manual has been rewritten so it can contain images.
* To make xlog more HIG compliant, Ctrl-Q will now quit the program and
Ctrl-W will close a log.
* Fixed a crash when locale conversion fails when reading the manual.
Thanks to Boguslaw, SQ5TB for reporting.
* Many minor bugfixes.
* Slovak translations by Michal Karas, OM4AA.
* French MANUAL and FAQ by Jean-Luc Coulon, F5IBH.
