FLEcli

Multi-platform "Fast Log Entry"(FLE) processing tool.

"Fast Log Entry" is a nifty tool, written by DF3CB. It allows quick and efficient entry of radio amateur contacts made during DXpeditions, contests or SOTA/WWFF activation. It can export the listed contacts in ADIF format ready to be uploaded to eQSL/LOTW or submitted for SOTA and WWFF. The program is only availble as a Windows executable which leaves the Mac or Linux users (like me) in the cold.

This tool is intended to process FLE formated files on other platform than Windows. The FLE file format is described on https://www.df3cb.com/fle/documentation/

But is also the alibi to learn and explore GO.
