This fix tries to solve issue #438 and some other minor problems.
New wsjtx program needs rigctld starting parameter "--vfo" to work properly with
split/Rig mode. At the moment parameter "--vfo" is optional, but it may be added
as hardcoded default in Hamlib version 5.0
Parameter "--vfo" usage causes change to almost all rigctld commands needing the
vfo to be stated always as first paramater of command.
I.E. command "f" must be issued as "f currVFO". Other possibilites instead of
currVFO are VFOA, VFOB etc. depending on used rig model.
There is a command \chk_vfo that can be used to clear out has rigctld started with
"--vfo" paramater or not. Unfortunately there are variants in the way how different
rigctlds answer to this command. And even the rigctld man pages give wrong information
about the answer format.
And not only that, but the versions of Hamlib do have differences in command "v"
format when "--vfo" is used.
This fix can understand the current format (Hamlib 4.4) and on the other hand it also
detects different format that Hamlib 3.1 used. I did not have versions between 3.1
and 4.4. to test with.
Because all of this it may be that this fix needs readjust if they again change Hamlib
way of hanlding commands.
- rigctld connection tries to resolve if "--vfo" issued or not as first thing.
- changes command format by the result of \chk_vfo. This check and it's results
can be turned of with TRXControl checkbox "Use chkvfo" (default checked).
- all commands are now prefixed with plus "f" -> "+f" to make answer decoding lot
more easier. Plus prefix is there always not depending on "Use \chkvfo" state.
With "+" prefix answers always have line that starts with asked word and colon
followed by value "FREQUENY: 3500000" that is easy to detect then.
- fixed vfo detect to resolve also answers "Main,MainA,MainB,Sub,SubA,SubB,None"
that may be result for "v" command with some rigs.
- disabled "Run rigctld when program starts" checkbox if rig "Hamlib Net Rigtcld"
is selected. There is no need to start rigctld as that "rig" means we are
trying to access already running rigctld via TCP. Usually trying to start
rigctld by cqrlog leads to debug message "Rigtld failed to start" in that case.
- same with "Run rotctld when program starts" if rotor is "Hamlib Net Rotctld"
- cleaned lot of code in preferences related to rig and rot settings change
- fixed synapse httpsend user agent string. String with "Synacode" causes now
web bot fitering in www.hamqsl.com's server that disables Propagation to work.
It may be that in future this user agent string must be user defineable, if
bot filtering "learns" this new agent string too fast.
- fixed help files

Rewrite whole communication to use "+" prefix with commands.
This makes received information sorting lot more easier.
Added counter (10) to set frequency 0 (zero) if no reply from rig.

Changed hardcoded parameter "currVFO" to variable.
Changed TRXControl vfo buttons cloring drive to radio.getcurrvfo works, but not with icoms that can not answer get_vfo command.

Added Main,Sub,MainA,MainB,SubA,SubB,None support to detect vfo.
Without those the non VFOA or VFOB name ended to be mode name.
Fixed user agent in synapse httpsend because bot detect firewall at hamqsl.com blocked user agent "synapse". Now sends Mozilla/4.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) that is agent string in normal browser.
