[Seavox] SeaVoX Device Catalogue

[Lowry, Roy K.]

Hi again,

I've added a space to the seven.  The vocabulary will be republished overnight (it happens around 02:00Z) and a new version with the standardised abbreviated names will be accessible tomorrow.

Cheers, Roy.

Please note that I now work part-time from Tuesday to Thursday.  E-mail response on other days is possible but not guaranteed!

Hi Roy -

Thanks for the speedy reply!

Either way is fine, it would be easier to script this if there was just one style.

Thanks -
Nan

Just to be sure, what would you like me to do - add a space after 'SBE' for the 7 entries or remove the space from the other 20?  Jenny and Lou who prepare the L22 entries are on the SeaVoX list and so will be aware of your requirement and can keep an eye out to ensure we stay consistent in the future.
