If you are using the expo laptop just edit this file: +

+and other people will take care of synchronising it with the version control system. + +

+DO NOT take a copy of the logbook.html file from the expo laptop, +copy it by email or USB stick to another laptop, edit it there and then copy it back. That will +delete other people's work. + +

If you are using your own laptop then you will need to +install and learn how to use the version control software. +And you will need to synchronise regularly (every day) to +ensure that the updates from all the people entering trip data are OK and don't get overwritten by ignorant use of this software. + +

Historical logbooks

Older logbooks (prior to 2007) were stored as logbook.txt with just a bit of consistent markup to allow troggle parsing.

The formatting was largely freeform, with a bit of markup ('===' around header, bars separating date, - , and who) which allows the troggle import script to read it correctly. The underlines show who wrote the entry. There is also a format for time-underground info so it can be automagically tabulated.
