289 Traditional SIMs include a cyclic file that is intended to be updated whenever
290 an outgoing call is dialed - but it is up to individual phone designs whether
291 they actually update this LND cyclic store or not. This SIM LND store has the
292 same record format as phonebooks, carrying only phone numbers and optional alpha
293 tags - there are no fields for date & time, call duration or status as in call
294 answered or not. Because of the limitations of this SIM LND store, most phone
295 designs do not use it, and instead go with their own implementation of call
296 history lists.

298 Because this LND store is a cyclic file, not linear fixed like phonebooks, it
299 can only be dumped - it cannot be freely edited. (The only update operation
300 allowed on cyclic files is writing a new record that becomes the new #1,
301 shifting all previous records down and losing the oldest one - but it is an
302 operation to be performed by phones if they support this LND as envisioned by
303 ancient spec writers, not something we are in the business of with fc-simtool.)
304
305 The command to dump the LND cyclic store is just 'dump-lnd'. If you have had
306 your SIM for a very long time, having used it in different phones with different
307 firmwares, it may be interesting to look at the output of dump-lnd - you may
308 have LND records that were generated ages ago by other phones if your current
309 one does not write into SIM LND.
