Version 0.40.2 with a working info window and some new QSO data features

• The info window is working again! If you are a new user and running version 0.30.0 or earlier you will never have seen this work.
• This version doesn't save QSO data if less than 200 characters. This is to avoid saving things like a reply to a CQ with no response (I call them invalid QSOs).
• A menu item has been provided to purge invalid QSOs that already exist. This should only need to be used once.
• There is now the ability to manually delete a QSO with a right click menu item on the file name.
• The table column UTC Timestamp has been changed to Age which is the elapsed time since last updated.

Installers have been provided for Windows 10, MacOS and the Raspberry Pi. Builds for other platforms such as Windows 7-32 bit and other Debian Linux variants are possible and I'm happy to take requests for them. I'm not sure about Windows 11 as I don't have a way to test but please post an issue if this doesn't work.

Version 0.30.0 with configurable font size, tooltips and usability improvements

The following are the changes for this release:

• The font size can be configured in the preferences. After that a restart of the application is required and the size of the window must be changed manually.
• There are tooltips to explain the meaning of the headings in the table.
• There is a right-click menu in the QSO History Window to edit the QSO. The text is formatted as Markdown and HTML and will be opened in the default editor for files with .md extension. They can be edited in any text editor however I recommend Visual Studio Code which can show how the text will be rendered.
• It is no longer essential to use the JS8Call log function to save a QSO History however it is still recommended. In any case if you start sending to someone else or send a CQ or Heartbeat the QSO in progress will be saved and closed.
• The QSO History button will be enabled as soon as history has been saved (previously you had to select the row again).
• The QSO History button will force the QSO History Window to show if it is already open and change it to a new call sign if necessary.
• In the main window if there is QSO History for a call sign it will be made bold in the table.
• History will be saved for a group (except for '@ HB' or '@allcall'). This is started when you send to the group and ended if you send to somewhere else.
• The history for a group will not appear in the table because the traffic will most likely be from different call signs. It can be opened from the main menu and since group names start with '@' character they will be at the top of the list.
• If you query a station that is on auto reply (say after getting a HB response) that will be saved as QSO history for that call sign.
• The findqsos function is executed in a separate process which doesn't block the U/I (that was annoying on a slower machine like a Raspberry Pi). There is a cycling "progress bar" to indicated this is happening.

Version 0.21.2 with binaries for Windows, Linux and MacOS

Thank you to Trippnology for creating a build system so now there are binaries for Windows x64, Linux (Debian x64 and Raspberry Pi) and MacOS x64.

For Windows there are three packages:

JS8Assistant.Setup.0.21.2.exe - Windows Installer
JS8Assistant.0.21.2.exe - Windows Portable version (no installation required)
JS8Assistant-0.21.2-win.zip - unzips to a folder with the exe and support files inside

First version for external evaluation

This version includes a Windows binary.
