Dive List
~~~~~~~~~
Information in the dive list is taken from different sources. Either
through <<S_ImportingAlienDiveLogs,imports from other diving log
software>> or a <<S_ImportNewDives,dive computer>> or manually entered.
Additional columns can be added through
<<S_SettingUpPreferences,preferences>>.
Existing data can be <<S_EditDiveInfo,manually edited>>, too.
Because of the inaccuracy of depth gauge of diving computers depth
>20m are shown rounded to the next meter. Despite this the provided
depth is kept in the logfile. Users of imperial system aren't affected
by this.
