Concerning item 4. this would be great to have. I already hoped to see this somewhen in the future in Plucker, but never dared to ask.
Some comments/questions on current behavior of fiveway selector: 1. On my T3 a previously selected document stays selected in library view. Pressing 'select' another time selects the first item in the list (as expected), but leaves the previously selected item selected as well. This is a bit irritating. 2. Would it be possible to link 'left' and 'right' button of fiveway selector to 'previous category' and 'next category' in library view? This would be the same behavior as in T3's launcher. This way it's easy to change categories with one hand.
One other question: Is there a directory on an SD Card apart from the '/palm/launcher' where Plucker looks for documents. It would be great to be able to keep documents in a directory hierarchy. I have the Plucker Linux How-Tos on my SD card and they fill up the launcher directory. As a result, applications on the SD card don't show up in launcher anymore (limitation of 256?). In addition, it's difficult to find an application among all these Plucker documents.
Best regards, Carsten.

Here are some ideas:
1. It seems to me that the jogdial and fiveway library highlighters
should become one code. This will make it easier to add further
selection devices, for instance:
2. The keyboard should be able to select docs in the library. The
most natural way to do this is to bind the next-link and previous-link
controls in the library to moving the highlight, and the select-link
to selecting. By default these are mapped to arrows and enter.
3. Libraryform should have an option so that pressing the first letter
of a document moves a highlight. 4. In documents, perhaps fiveway should have (selectably) the same
behavior vis-a-vis links as it does in the library, i.e., a first
press turns on selection (except in one-screen docs where it's on
by default) and up/down select links then.
Any thoughts?
Alex
