The entry window had a fixed set of boxes with a Name and Comment box beside
the exchange. N1MM lays out one row of boxes per contest and nothing else, so
this does the same: general logging keeps Name and Comment, and a contest gets
the boxes it exchanges.
Two new members on `Contest` carry the cases where the boxes and the log
columns are not the same list:
- `FromExchange1` spreads what was typed in one box across the log columns.
Where the other station sends a serial or a district code depending on where
it is, N1MM gives it one box and sorts the value into the number, section or
zone column from there, so the score and the Cabrillo file read it from the
same column N1MM does.
- `LogFieldsFor` gives the log window its own column list. Sweepstakes takes
the whole exchange in one box and logs it in four columns; `SweepstakesExchange`
parses `72 A 74 SCV` in any order, reading from the last word back as N1MM
does.
The sent serial is now marked as not required and space steps over it along
with the two report boxes, because nobody types the number going out.

Four settings were read by nothing.
MultipleSessions = 0000/30 runs the contest in half-hour sessions from
00:00 UTC. The session is part of the dupe key, so a station worked in
an earlier one may be worked again, and ResetMultsEverySession and
ResetSNEverySession start the multipliers and the serial numbers over.
DupeQSOMinutesAgo is the other way back to a station: after so many
minutes rather than in the next session. The log holds the time of the
last contact per dupe key instead of only the key, and the setting's
IgnoreBand and ThisMode decide the scope, because a file that uses it
turns DupeType off.
MinimumOffTime drives the time on and time off the score summary now
shows under the score, and beside them are the band changes made against
the allowance for a contest that limits them. N1MM's countdown for the
minutes you have to stay on a new band needs its info window and is not
here.
UdcFile.Flag now takes 1 and 0 as well as True and False, which is what
these settings are written as and what N1MM reads.

MultSqlString = CallHist counts every station the call history file
lists, once per callsign, which is how N1MM dedups it. The file reaches
the scoring code through ContestLog.History, and a QsoContext now
carries it; without a file loaded nothing counts.
BonusPoints2 = +50, calls.txt reads the callsigns from the support-files
folder and adds 50 to the contact, *2 doubles it and a plain 50 scores
50 instead. The folder comes from the registry, which the app passes
when it reads the .udc files. N1MM's other form, where the file is
grids.txt and the bonus is looked up by grid square, is not read.

MultWindowType names the list N1MM validates a received section against,
and every exchange that was not all digits counted as a multiplier here.
Four of N1MM's lists are held now -- the ARRL sections, the US states,
the Canadian provinces and the 165 OK/OM districts, which came out of
N1MM's own exe -- and a file naming one of them counts only the values
on it. A file naming any of the hundred-odd others keeps the old rule.
The 2023 OK/OM DX log now scores contact for contact as N1MM did. Two
contacts in the 2026 log still differ: the district code is stored with
a trailing space, which N1MM matches against its list untrimmed, so it
counts no multiplier where this counts one.

CabrilloFormat 2, 3, 4 and 5 name the NAQP, NA Sprint, Sweepstakes and
section-and-serial lines. A file asking for one of those got the default
line; it now gets the layout, ported from CabrilloString2 and
CabrilloString4 in N1MM's Contact.cs, in N1MM's columns.
The exchange the layouts split into columns is built from the boxes the
file defines, in the order it defines them. N1MM builds it from the
section box alone, which writes only half of a two-box exchange such as
NAQP's name and state.
Format 6, the ARRL RTTY Roundup line, is still not read. No published
.udc file asks for it, because the Roundup has a contest class of its
own.
ExchangeSlots.ValueOf moves to Nonemm.Contests as QsoExchange.ValueOf,
so the contest code can read a contact through its exchange boxes
without a second copy of that switch.

`CabrilloString` names a field and a column width in turn. The line it makes
follows N1MM: the operator's callsign in the first 13 columns, then every
column padded to its width with one space after it, and a value longer than its
column cut rather than pushed sideways. The cut is new for every contest, not
just the user-defined ones — the columns are the sponsor's, not ours.
`CabrilloVersion` is read too, so a contest whose sponsor still asks for 2.0
gets it in the header.
A contest that lays out its own line can put the transmitter column where it
wants it, or leave it out, so the writer no longer adds one at the end.

I wrote SA 10 and OK/OM DX SSB in code after two failed attempts at the
download. The download works — the page posts a nonce with the form — and the
files say I got both contests wrong.
SA 10 is deleted from the code. Its file scores the station's log to the
contact, where the code had the wrong Cabrillo name and counted its multipliers
once in the contest rather than once per mode.
OK/OM DX now covers the CW running only, which is what N1MM's class is for and
what N1MM's own documentation says: the SSB running has different rules and a
pair of .udc files, one for each side. The CW rules go back to the class, so
Czechia and Slovakia are one side of the contest again. With the SSB files in
place both of the station's SSB logs score to the contact.
Reading those files turned up four things in the .udc reader: a file whose
extension is upper case was passed over, `Country` was not read as a
multiplier source, `OtherCountry` was not a points condition, and a section
multiplier counted the serial numbers the other side of a contest sends.
All Asian stays in code — N1MM has a class for it after all — with the Cabrillo
name and the band table it uses.

Both are in the station's log and neither could be opened. The rules are
written from the published ones and checked by replaying the log.
YOTA scores a contact by the age the other operator sends: 13 points down to 10
for anyone 25 or under, whatever the continent, and 1 point or 3 for everyone
else. Every age worked on a band is a multiplier. The 2024, 2025 and 2026 logs
come out to the contact.
OK/OM DX is the first contest whose exchange differs by the other station's
country: a county from OK and OM stations, a serial number from everyone else,
in the two columns N1MM keeps them in, and `SkipsField` walks the entry window
past the box that does not apply. Points depend on which side the operator is
on, and Czechia and Slovakia count as the two countries they are. The 2023 log
comes out to the contact.
The Cabrillo exchange now gets the entry, because YOTA sends an age that only
the contest setup knows.
Two differences are left in the log, both from the .udc files the operator
used: their YOTA file only lists ages 7 to 25, so a younger operator scored as
an adult, and one OK/OM log was made with the file for stations outside OK and
OM while signing an OM call.

Two pieces of work on the scoring engine.
The .udc reader now takes N1MM's published scoring vocabulary: the full
PointsPerContact condition set, the PointsMultBy family, PowerMult, BonusPoints,
the multiplier sources and the settings that say which stations bring a
multiplier in. MultMult is a weight rather than a switch, as in N1MM's
ComputeScore. The entry categories and the sent exchange reach the rules in a
new ContestEntry, so a contest can score by the power category it is entered in
or by what this station sends.
Then every contest in a real N1MM log was scored again from these rules and
compared with the points and multiplier flags N1MM wrote. That found five bugs:
ARRL DX and IARU read the exchange from the wrong column, a stored " " was read
as a value rather than as empty, CQ WW RTTY's own Canadian area names were not
counted, a maritime mobile scored nothing, and a contact in a mode the contest
does not run scored as if it were in the contest.
docs/n1mm-interop.md has the check and what still differs.

The box names in EntryWindowInfo are N1MM's LogItem.LogItemNameType members.
We read four of them under names that are not in that enum, so a file naming
its section box SectionText got no section box at all, and a zone or a power
box was dropped whatever it was called.
SectionText, CQZoneText and PowerText are now read. SectText stays as well: it
is not one of N1MM's names but files in the wild use it.

ARRL DX, IARU HF, Sweepstakes, RTTY Roundup, NAQP and general logging join
CQ WW and CQ WPX. The Cabrillo QSO line is now built column by column by the
contest, because Sweepstakes puts the callsign after the serial number where
everyone else puts it first.
User-defined contests read the subset of N1MM's .udc settings that covers the
exchange, the dupe rule, points and up to three multipliers.
