[Kflog-user] WELT2000 support, flight evaluation improvements

Hi,

I've committed a couple of changes to the kflog svn-repository:

- improvements of the flight evaluation (that's a nice patch
  from Constantijn Neeteson), more detailed statistics.

- WELT2000 support: KFLog does not use the old-style airfield files
  anymore! It now expects a "welt2000.txt" file in the airfields
  directory. In the configuration dialog you find a new section
  "Airfields" to apply country filters or specify a radius around your
  home site within which the WELT2000 file should be imported. KFLog
  also supports a "welt2000.conf" file in the airfields directory which
  works exactly like in cumulus.

- changed directory structure: KFLog now uses the same mapdata directory
  structure as cumulus, i.e.
  .../mapdata/landscape/  -> terrain data
  .../mapdata/airfields/  -> airfield data (welt2000.txt)
  .../mapdata/airspaces/  -> airspace data (openair files)
  Note that the terrain data has moved to a "landscape" subdirectory and
  the former "airspace" directory has got a trailing "s".

- improved support for the Cambridge 302 vario (if anybody else is
  interested ...).

Please test this version. I plan to turn this into a new release and
appreciate any kind of feedback!

Cheers,

     Hendrik

PS: If someone is artistically talented, he/she is very welcome to
improve the kflog/hi48-mimetype-airfield.png icon.  ;-)
