[aprssig] APRS messaging break out

[Andrew Rich]

Curt,

What would help me is if the messages got into a tcpip stream somewhere.

Do APRS messages on the TNC side "leak" into the APRS stream ?

I am having problems coding perl to "tail" a file.

I can handle tcpip streams no probs

I should get into C coding one day !

Nope, but logging of all messaging is on our feature request list.
We have a dialog right now that shows all messaging:  We could tie
into that code and log everything that goes there to disk without
too much difficulty.

Of course we'd be happy to accept patches to do that and integrate
them into the main code body...
