Hello. A couple friends and I are looking for some features to implement in rockbox, preferably the low-hanging fruit. We were thinking of adding a search function to the text viewer, as described here: http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/2145?pagenum=3 . If possible, we'd also look into making the keyboard dialog input non-synchronous so as-you-type searching would be possible, but I have no idea how feasible that is right now. I was also thinking of adding support for regular expressions. If there's nothing currently in the API pertaining to regexes, would it be useful to write this as a general library for use by plugins and other parts of rockbox, instead of just using it for the viewer alone?
If someone's already working on any of this, let me know, otherwise we'll go ahead and attempt to contribute. Thanks, Jon (PS: I'm not used to mailing lists; if I screwed up some obscure header and messed up everyone's threading, please tell me.)
