XML-RPC method addition request for Fldigi

[[e-mail] [linuxham]]

I'd like to request adding these XML-RPC methods to Fldigi:

log.set_rst_in

log.set_rst_out

for use with external control programs.

I use an Xdoe/Applescript app to control FLdigi
and a logger (RUMlog) on my Macbook and would
like to be able to set RST's from it.

Thanks, 73 .. Jim, W2XO

Jim,

Do you want to set the fields in front panel of FLDIGI? If so I get back to you, need to do a little research to see if something is already available and to make the call syntax consistent with the current set of calls.

Dave is of on vacation, I'll create a patch with the change, What computer do you run, I can create a Mac OSX Intel, Linux or Win32 binary for you to test.

Hi Robert,

Thanks for reply.

Yes, the fields "In" and "Out" in the main screen.

These are readable with log.get_rst_in and log.get_rst_out, but not
settable with the log.set methods.

I am running a Macbook with OS X 10.7 (Lion). I have Mint Linux
available also, OS X 10.4 and 10.5 available on Power PC Macs
and a Raspberry PI and would be glad to test those if that's wanted/needed.

I don't log wit FLdigi, but the macros need these fields. I log with RUMlog,
and I control both apps from a python app I wrote that uses Applescript
to set the fields in RUMlog and XML-RPC to set the fields in FLdigi from
one entry blank instead of having to go to both screens.

Jim,

I'm using fldigi and RUMlog on my Macbook (10.9.4), and would be interested in learning more about your Python/Applescript program to control both apps. Would you be willing to share the code?


I've also started playing around with JT9/JT65 using WSJT-X, and wishing there was a way to integrate it with RUMlog. I have no experience with Python and very little with Applescript, but I've done a lot of Perl programming.


Thanks,

Hi John,

I may have confused things. I mistyped 'Xcode' in the posting. My
control app is an Xcode/Applescript
app. I do have a Field Day logger that I wrote in python that talks
to the K3NG Arduino keyer. I must
have said something about that, but its a different project.

I have not tested it on anyone else's computer, so it would be
interesting to see if it works properly on 10.9.

I'll send it to you and you can try it.
