You can cut and paste a whole bunch of lines at a time, as long as it 
has the right input format that Bruce's PHP takes.

I'd only entered two QSO's (one a local, the other a DX QSO) to see the 
result, to make sure that my own program was putting out the same stuff 
(same spacing and left or right justification of Cabrillo fields, etc). 
 The ARRL robot took the format without complaining... now crossing my 
fingers until September or October, HI HI.  Might become the first time 
someone submits a log with a score of zero :-) :-).

Cabrillo is such an easy format to target, there must be *someone* who 
can code up a small program, or a script, to convert from some other 
known format.  Most of you don't run MacOS X, or I would whip up a 
quick converter app.

One possibly is write a Perl script or something, to convert whatever 
format you currently have to the format that Bruce's PHP take, and do 
the Cabrillo conversion as a two step log generation. Bruce's format is 
very basic.
