fldigi does not use cwdaemon. As with all other modems the CW is via USB 
and soundcard. You can read here as a starter for CW and fldigi

Dave has also developed flwkey which interfaces with the K1EL winkeyer.

As a pre-Alpha and Alpha tester I have used both.

Also fldigi is bridged to Xlog, so you will have a backup copy of your log.

I personally think Andy should look at intergrating the winkeyer into 
Xlog. The software is open source and GPL.
