Re: log edit

[Thomas Beierlein]

Hi Drew,

thanks for the bug report.

I can confirm the problem. I got already fixed in last autumn, but as
it seems there was no official bug fix release afterwards.

So either pick up the actual sources from github and compile it
yourself or wait for the shortly coming TLF-1.4.0 version.
