It works both ways and is a better solution for normal typing, not necessarily for entering commands in xterm ;-) Xterm and HWR don't work too well together anyways. The HWR uses delete-surrounding quite a lot, and this doesn't really work for terminal applications, especially when using interactive programs. -- Santtu Lakkala ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers

I don't want to define them as symbols, because they easily interfere with other ones, this is something to definetely avoid. But, the solution is simple: there should be a caps-lock button in the handwriting input application! I will continue to use my lowercase symbols, but with the caps-lock enabled they will be considered as capitals. Smooth and easy, isn't it? I can only agree. That would probably be the only thing that could make me use the HWR. On second thought, I'd prefer to be able to assign a HWR-gesture to caps-lock.

On second thought, I'd prefer to be able to assign a HWR-gesture to caps-lock. Agree - btw still with the button for optional use, and mainly for a visual clue of the on/off state eventually triggered by the gesture. -- Antonio ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
Re: [maemo-developers] joining efforts to make a complete community repository
[suggestion for common repository] what are you thoughts about this ? I've seen the Zero Install [1] injector has been somehow ported to maemo [2]; I think it should be recommended for maemo developers to create packages for it, because all of its advantages are important for a desktop system, but they are GREAT, imho mandatory, for a device where a user wants to avoid to death messing up things. With the 770 we have easy internet connection and linux - wonderful: these are the ingredients for a complete community repository based on 0install packages. The user can feel somehow protected by not-installing stuff on the device, and anyone can distribute software. Moreover, whenever a reflash is needed, the backup restore of the system with all the apps and configs would be way simpler than now, because every app (or most of them) would be self-contained into the cache directory, so to further simplify the process it could be written a backup/restore utility showing all the currently 0installed apps, with checkboxes to: * do not backup at all (will not be restored) * do not backup program files in the cache, just config stuff (will require new download when used the first time) * backup all (will be restored with program and config files in the cache too) It will backup the created aliases, the links to packages, and eventually the cached files. The restore app will restore everything without effort. It would be nice and good even for normal unexperienced users, with a well-done hildonized 0install injector and automatic alias creation and launch selector interface.
