Hi Folks: For some time now I've been cobbling together a kind of suckless ecosystem for use on tablet or hybrid touch devices. I thought I'd release some of the code to the public, although most of it is proof-of-concept and cobbled together.
GOAL Operate without a keyboard. OVERVIEW SLUT combines a patched dwm which is gesture aware. A certain gesture, or clicking on the status text, will launch a patched dmenu which is mouse aware, allowing you to launch various things you want to launch, e.g., svkbd, surf, zathura, etc. Gesture mode is toggled by way of a physical button on the tablet (in this case, the power button, although the volume buttons would work). Switching between applications is achieved via dmenu + a patched version of lsw. You should also modify the apps that you play with to be "gesture" aware, that is, to respond to Control-F1 through Control-F6 (see dwm's config.h). All the best, Peter -- sic dicit magister P University of Toronto / Fordham University http://individual.utoronto.ca/peterjh gpg 1024D/ED6EF59B (7D1A 522F D08E 30F6 FA42 B269 B860 352B ED6E F59B) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys ED6EF59B
