ah', thanks - so it will be easier :), doesn't need to use a new
variable.

right, I'll prepare the code soon.

Tom, do you have any idea, what would be the good choice for
MYQRA placeholder?

And - I know, now there is a discuss on other thread about the
core rewrite of Tlf, but - I have an another placeholder
question, and I try to start to discuss here.

Sometime I participate on RTTY contests, and most station gives me back
my exchange (to indicate he receives it correctly). I thought about
it would be good to use a placeholder for station's exchange in
my confirm message / report message.


So, there would be two new placeholder: MYQRA and HISEXCHANGE -
any ideas are welcome.
