Yes, 0.9.3 has my seal of approval :-) 
It works perfectly, with TNC and rig both on USB ports. 

I am suitably impressed: TLF has some slick features, I noticed. In 
particular the ALT-H 'man pages', the 'mc' logcfg.dat editor etc. 
Also the ESC to interrupt the keyer is very good.

A couple of minor things: in the example logcfg.dat files, the "SPEED" 
parameter should probably be "CWSPEED".

I noticed the ALT-V cw speed/weight window leaves behind an empty spot 
when it goes away ( the 'previously-sent CW test doesn't get 
refreshed).

Also: TLF picks up the CWSPEED parameter from logcfg.dat, but when I 
bring up the window with ALT-V, it shows 20 WPM (even though the 
keyer may be sending at 42). When I then do a down-arrow, it drops to 
36 WPM and correctly shows that (and remembers it). To put it simply: 
the *initial* CWSPEED does not make it into the ALT-V box.

Anyway, all this is nit-picking. I am going to take it for a test 
drive in my next single-op outing.
