Logging via applescript

I'm writing a program to interface WSJT-X with RUMlog.
Applescript is used to save a QSO to RUMlog. That works great for call, reports and locator.
But I'm missing the possibility to set date,time, frequency and power

Would that be possible to add?

For logging RUMlog uses the date, time and frequency seen the the corresponding fields. Normally the current date and time will be used and the active frequency from the transceiver.
I can add more commands if required, maybe next week when spare time it allows.

Date and time would be fine to use from RUMlog. The difference wouldn't be that much. But since WSJT-X needs to be connected to the transceiver, the frequency is not available in RUMlog. So that and power would be great if they could be set with applescript.

Find here the updated RUMlog:http://dl2rum.de/rumsoft/RUMlogApp.zip

The added commands are very basic. The given frequency must be in Hz, the power in W or as text. To remain compatible you should use only:
  • High Power
  • Mid Power
  • QRP
  • 2xQRP
  • QRPP
  • Unknown

Code: Select all

tell application "RUMlog"
	Frequency (14195000)
	Power (100)
end tell
or:

Code: Select all

tell application "RUMlog"
	Frequency (7007000)
	Power ("QRP")
end tell

That works perfect. Thanks a lot.
