[TRLog] INPUT CONFIG FILE vs STDCFG.DAT

We have sometimes used INPUT CONFIG FILE to describe workplace-specific 
parameters in a multiop setup thus making it possible 
to prepare only one LOGCFG.DAT (See Ex.3 in The Manual).

The reason we can't use STDCFG.DAT is that our computers and PCs
are not married and may change partners between parties. Else we
might carve e. g. MY WIFE'S NAME = TS850SATAN right into the 
heart of each computer. Also, tables in the bar are not reserved (COMPUTER ID = 
A etc).
