eqslfldigi.rex

    This program, which runs on Linux or Windows, enables fldigi to call 
the
    default web browser to upload qsl information to www.eqsl.cc.

    The functions of this program are unique to fldigi.

    A separate data file contains the user's eqsl.cc ID and password.
    This file will be created based on user input IF not found.

    This file may be put in any directory where fldigi can access the file.

    The default location for the two files used or generated by this program
    is defined by the variable 'home'.  The 'home' location may be 
edited to
    suit the user.

    The Windows command in a fldigi macro is:
<EXEC>regina c:\regina\eqsl_fldigi.rex <FREQ> <CALL> <MODE> <IZDT> <RST> 
</EXEC>

    If the call field is "TEST" then the output is sent to eqslfile.txt.

    If no RST is defined in fldigi when this program is invoked, the 
RST_SENT field,
    which is optional, will not be sent to eQSL.cc.

    Some mode and baud combinations are not valid for adif 2.2.7,
    which is the current specIFication dated 2010-11-3, or are not 
accepted by
    eQSL.cc.  eQSL.cc will reject invalid uploads.

    The Linux macro command is:
<EXEC>rexx <pathtofile>/execfldigi.rex <FREQ> <CALL> <MODE> <IZDT> <RST> 
</EXEC>

    The program has been tested on Linux using the "Regina" rexx 
distribution and also ooRexx,
    an object oriented Rexx.
