/var/log no winkeyer daemon shown. How to start ?
I don't exactly understand what you're seeing. Is that a message you
see in /var/log?
There are probably multiple ways to do this, but I use cwdaemon.
$ sudo apt install cwdaemon
On my IC-7300, I set:
USB Keying (CW) to DTR
In logcfg.dat:
NETKEYER
NETKEYERPORT=6789 # The defaults
NETKEYERHOST=127.0.0.1
You have to start cwdaemon manually before running tlf. I have a 3
line "start" script:
killall -w -v cwdaemon
cwdaemon -d ttyUSBx -x n
tlf
where ttyUSBx is the IC-7300 USB serial port (same as you use for rig
control).

Since I suck at scipts, do you mind sharing ?
Just exactly those three lines:
killall -w -v cwdaemon
cwdaemon -d ttyUSBx -x n
tlf
ttyUSBx is your USB device, without the "/dev" string e.g. ttyUSB0
tlf is whatever command you normally use to run tlf.
Put those three lines in a file e.g. called "start"
$chmod u+x start # to make it executable
./start # to start the CW daemon and tlf.
I'm don't have a winkeyer, so I can't help with that setup. There is
probably an advantage to offloading the CW generation to the keyer. I
liked the idea of doing it all with just the computer and the single USB
connection to the IC-7300.
