<br>
Being a programmer myself, i want to give you my opinion on that point.
Although i would not mind if it would be included in Win-Test, i doubt i will
be. It might be easy to integrate a certain number of "Building
blocks" strung together by a config-file, thus covering a good chunk of
the contests out there. But no one knows what "building blocks" are
needed tomorrow. There are so many contests with so many (obscure) rules out
there, that are difficult to capture in a standardized way. Just take WAE with
its QTC-system, for example. How to code that into a "config file"?
You still have to let Win-Test be aware of "QTC-style" contests, let
them be parameterized as you wish. This example might be "too
trivial", as WAE is a "big" contest, but there is similar stuff
in 100s of smaller contests we never heard of, from obscure exchanges to bonus
points for working some special kind of station, or your ability to form a
keyword or sentence out the first letter of the name of each station worked,
instantly doubling your score.<br>
<br>
Such rules out of the usual "qsopoints times mults = score" system
can only be captured with some kind of script interpreting or incorporating
compiled code like DLLs, not just "setup files". But - Win-Test v4
will incorporate Lua-scripting-support, perhaps one can use Lua to describe the
rules of the "1296MHz All-Monaco RTTY-Sprint-Party for YLs". We will
see :-).<br>
