Folks,
I've realized from reading threads and from searching around myself that many of you are not happy with the dive log software that is available...so I'm going to begin writing one.
Here's what I'm visualizing so far (in no special order):
- cross platform (pc/mac and eventually linux)
- importing options for many dive computers, and ability to add or download more as they become available.
- simple to use interface yet powerful enough for the hardcore divers/users
- ability to combine or count 2 dives into 1 (descend to 35' to grab something someone may have dropped and ascent back to surface - dive computers count this as a dive - is it really? well, have an option for that.)
- scanning features - scan in the written sig from your log book - and reprint if needed.
- custom printing template options
- dive log data - sort it anyway you want
I'm figuring that I'd like to identify what the drawbacks are with most of the dive log packages out there.
I want to start this in the next month or so which gives me some time to compile ideas and suggestions in hopes of programming the ultimate dive log software around.
