[Tlf-devel] TLF-1.1.3 bugfix release

A new TLF bug fix release is available at

https://github.com/downloads/Tlf/tlf/tlf-1.1.3.tar.gz

It mainly fixes the not working CLUSTERLOGIN reported by David N1EA and
Martin OK1RR. 

Old tlf-1.1.2 contained a bug in the parsing logic for logcfg.dat and
rules files. It failed to recognize some keywords if there was a
similar one with the same beginning (e.g. CLUSTERLOGIN got not
recognized as there is also a CLUSTER keyword). 
Furthermore it complained about empty lines in that files with:
'Keyword '' not supported'.

Bug fixes:
    - Implemented new and much more robust parsing logic for keywords.
      Reworked and rechecked also all parameter handling to allow a
      better failure handling.
    - tlf no longer complains about empty lines in config files.
    - Add support for '~' expansion for '-f' command line switch.
      (Thanks N1EA). Something like 'tlf -f~/mydir/logcfg.dat' is
      working now.
    - Add description of reset of CW bandwidth during band switch and
      CWBANDWIDTH= keyword to man page.

Furthermore a some cleanup and internal changes are made to simplify
future maintenance, e.g.:
    - Cleanup of unused variables and comments.
    - Fix configure-script to abort if no ncurses lib is installed.
    - Rename 'configure.in' into 'configure.ac' as former will be no
      longer accepted by automake-1.13

Please have a thorough check how your logcfg.dat and rule files are
accepted. While I did a thorough check that all parameters will be
recognized now there may be some subtle changes I did not found yet.

Please report back how it goes.
