YFKlog 0.2.2 - A general purpose Ham Radio Logbook  
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. Project Description 
----------------------
YFKlog is a general purpose logbook to keep track of amateur
radio contacts. This is version 0.2.2, released on 28. April 2007.
The key characteristics are:

- Console based, bloat-free text interface. 
- MySQL database backend 
- Unlimited number of logs manageable
- ADIF Import/Export
- Automatic creation of online logsearch
- High Quality QSL label printing with LaTeX
- basic award statistics (DXCC, WAZ, WPX etc).
- uses K1EA's cty.dat
- basic hamlib support to get frequency/mode from rig

2. Project Website
------------------
The latest version can be found at
http://fkurz.net/ham/yfklog.html

3. System requirements
----------------------
YFKlog was developed on Mandrake Linux 9.2, Debian Sarge
and FreeBSD 5.3 with Perl v5.8.5.

It requires the Perl modules:
(- strict)
- DBI             - Database
- Curses          - console screen handling
- Net::FTP        - upload of searchable onlinelog
- POSIX           - acos() function for distance and direction

A connection to a MySQL Database, not neccessarily on the same
machine as YFKlog is needed.

For generating QSL-labels, pdflatex with the 'geometry' package is 
needed. 

YFKlog was designed to run in a console with 80x24 characters.
