Add the option to ALT+click a decoded CQ or QRZ message which only
moves the Rx frequency to theirs, this facilitates calling a station
who is busy and may have many callers on their frequency. Updated the
corresponding mouse shortcuts help text.
Allow for times with seconds when parsing fast mode and FT8 decodes.
Exclude the RR73 grid square from and grid validation or matching, it
is not a grid square any more as far as WSJT-X is concerned, it is an
RRR substitute.
Add a simple state machine for QSO progress such that replies and
auto-sequencing can be better controlled.
Get compound callsign edge cases working again and allow QSOs from and
to compound callsign holders working in as many situations as possible
including auto-sequencing and FT8 auto-reply mode. This does mean
that a "DE W6/K1ABC DM93" type message close to a callers Tx or Rx
frequency will be taken as a reply to a CQ call despite it not being
explicitly addressed back to the CQ caller. Compound callsigns should
work in MSK144 contest mode also as well as in short code modes with
some minor restrictions (short codes will not be used where
configuration demands that a message be used to send a full compound
callsign).
Auto sequencing has been made generic such that it can be used for
more than one mode if desired.
Allow the use of free text messages to sign off in auto sequenced QSOs
without the message being overwritten by the sequencer. Double click
actions have been added to the Tx5 radio and push buttons to revert
back to the default standard 73 message.
Make DisplayText class interface more idiomatic C++ and simplify a
bit.
Fixed some displayed widget arrangements for different modes and
sub-modes so that they are consistent when starting up and when
switching mode or sub-mode.
This is a big change which has been extensively tested but no doubt
there will also be some new defects introduced.

Use the low confidence decode quality marker to elide spots and pass info via UDP
The UDP decode and reply message have been augmented with a boolean
flag denoting a low confidence decode when set. Existing clients can
safely use the reply message without passing the flag as the default
value will still action messages that have high confidence. If low
confidence decodes are to be passed back via the reply message then
the low confidence flag must be included and correctly set to match
the original decode.

Sub mode and fast mode flag are added to the UDP Status message and
Status messages after appropriate UI changes. MSK144 decodes produce
UDP Decode messages. Fast JT9 messages are treated similarly.
Currently ISCAT decodes are not posted as UDP Decode messages as they
do not fit well with the model.
git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@7389 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79

This should allow receivers of UDP Status messages to accurately track
the Tx watchdog status. Also some defects in the Tx watchdog logic are
repaired.

Build now creates and installs a UDP library that contains the server
side of the UDP messaging facility. This library is used by the
udp_daemon and message_aggregator reference examples. The new library
is currently a static archive but can also be built as a shared
library. The library allows third party Qt applications to easily
access UDP messages from WSJT-X.
Refactored the message_aggregator reference example to split out
classes into separate translation units. Added new functionality to
exercise the new UDP status fields, highlight own call, CQ/QRZ
messages and decodes near Rx DF.

The message_aggregator (MessageAggregator.cpp) has been updated to do
something with WSPR decodes.
git-svn-id: svn+ssh://svn.code.sf.net/p/wsjt/wsjt/branches/wsjtx@6101 ab8295b8-cf94-4d9e-aec4-7959e3be5d79

The MessageClient and MessageServer classes now agree a maximum common
schema number for the protocol described in NetworkMessage.hpp. this
is achieved by the client sending a Heartbeat message specifying the
highest schema number supported, the server responds with messages
using the minimum of its highest supported schema number and the
highest schema number sent by the client in its initial Heartbeat
message. This mechanism enables clients and servers built with
different generations of the message schema to interoperate with
minimum loss of functionality.
It should be noted that messages may be extended with new fields on
the end of the current definition so long as the meaning of the
original fields are unchanged. Such an extension does not need the
schema number to be incremented. On the other hand, using a newer
version of the underlying Qt QDataStream::Version should always
increment the schema number since the NetworkMessage::Builder and
NetworkMessage::Reader classes need to know which QDataStream::Version
to use.

The UDP "Free text" message comamnd should not expose implementation
differences between tab one and tab two. The "send next" capability is
not available on tab two so use of it has been removed from the UDP
interface.
The ability to trigger the immediate (or in next Tx period if the
current period is Rx) sending of the current free text message has
been added to the UDP interface. This is done by sending a "Free text"
UDP message containing an empty text message with the "Send" flag set.

This message now has the ability to simply change the free text
message or to change the message and send it ASAP.
The message_aggregator reference UDP server application exercises this
feature by sending a new free text message on any edit and requesting
it be sent by WSJT-X when editing is finished i,e, RETURN pressed or
focus moved away.

The reply can now be used to turn off auto Tx or to halt Tx
immediately. Also enforced the accept UDP requests setting for halt Tx
and set free text message replies.
Merged from the wsjtx-1.5 branch.

Also added Tx status to status UDP message.
Added the above features to the reference UDP server
message_aggregator.
Merged from the wsjtx-1.5 branch.

The Qt_5_0 QDataStream serialization format is buggy, moved to the
Qt_5_2 format.

To facilitate interaction with other applications WSJT-X now sends
status updates to a predefined UDP server or multicast group
address. The status updates include the information currently posted
to the decodes.txt and wsjtx_status.txt files. An optional back
communications channel is also implemented allowing the UDP server
application to control some basic actions in WSJT-X.
A reference implementaion of a typical UDP server written in C++ using
Qt is provided to demonstrate these facilities. This application is
not intended as a user tool but only as an example of how a third
party application may interact with WSJT-X.
The UDP messages Use QDataStream based serialization. Messages are
documented in NetworkMessage.hpp along with some helper classes that
simplify the building and decoding of messages.
Two message handling classes are introduced, MessageClient and
MessageServer. WSJT-X uses the MessageClient class to manage outgoing
and incoming UDP messages that allow communication with other
applications. The MessageServer class implements the kind of code
that a potential cooperating application might use. Although these
classes use Qt serialization facilities, the message formats are
easily read and written by applications that do not use the Qt
framework.
MessageAggregator is a demonstration application that uses
MessageServer and presents a GUI that displays messages from one or
more WSJT-X instances and allows sending back a CQ or QRZ reply
invocation by double clicking a decode. This application is not
intended as a user facing tool but rather as a demonstration of the
WSJT-X UDP messaging facility. It also demonstrates being a multicast
UDP server by allowing multiple instances to run concurrently. This is
enabled by using an appropriate multicast group address as the server
address. Cooperating applications need not implement multicast
techniques but it is recomended otherwise only a single appliaction
can act as a broadcast message (from WSJT-X) recipient.
