Me too. Its code is nicely organised and easy to read and modify. I
like the transparent overlay approach, and its target of being
finger-usable, and the hide/show control by swiping. And the touchpad
idea...
My only reservation is that I've found it not to look very beautiful.
Plus I'm interested at the moment in optimising for a landscape UI.
Those are the motivations for my current work.
which
is why I packaged it in Debian (some patches at [1], probably not
interesting if not the 03).
I have those already, apart from 02, because I started from the Debian
package. I've independently implemented something like 02.
If only I could find out how to force it
to stay on top on my setup so that I wouldn't need to restart it
every
time I switch a window and want to write something... (I have a
button
for that in my tihos program).
Yes. My idea about that is that I'd like the Input Method (IM) system
to tell a small server program (which is pretending to be an IM engine)
when keyboard input is needed, and then that program could run literki
and make sure that it is on top. Do you think that might work?
I believe that ibus is the most modern and actively developed IM
system, so I've installed that and am looking at its doc, but haven't
got far yet with working out the detail of what would be needed.
Regards,
Neil
