Any users in Hong Kong?

2008-02-08 Thread dda
Hi,

The reason I ask is that my Neo1973's GPS can't get a fix, at all, and
I was wondering whether the problem was location-related -- or just
plain bad karma...

Thanks.

Input Method Development

2008-02-06 Thread dda
I just received my Neo1973, and since I require Korean input, I'd like
to do it myself... I'd like to do something similar to the soft qwerty
keyboard -- except that I'd use Korean letters instead of Latin ones.
I've poked around the wiki, but I haven't found any good pointers on
creating and adding input methods.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I'll have a look, thanks for that. Including Korean into an xml file
won't be easy as the Korean script is a little more complex to
implement than the Latin one. Let's take Sébastien's example:
tpqktmxldkd to get 세바스티앙.

When you type tp ypu get 세 but when you add q [tpq] you get 셉, not
세ㅂ. Only if and when you type k [tpqk] does the letter ㅂ goes away
from 셉 to form a syllable with k/ㅏ. Basycally you have the following:
t -- ㅅ
tp - 세
tpq - 셉
tpqk - 세바
tpqkt - 세밧
etc...
And it can get trickier.

Also, although a qwerty kbd might be a start [as the Korean keyboard
is overlaid on top of qwerty anyway], I was also thinking of a smaller
keyboard, àla mobile phone kbd -- some of the keyboards available on
Korean phones are quite astute, and require fewer keys.

Anyway, I'll have a look and see what can be done.

Cheers,

 is reconfigurable, by use of an xml config file, and I was playing with
 support for UTF-8.  I haven't had time in the last couple weeks to work
 on it because of my work  school schedule.

 A slightly out of date version is available in a tar.gz
 http://projects.openmoko.org/projects/gtkeypad/

 Feel free to look at it, create a Korean xml config file, and add to the
 source.  I have slightly newer code on my computer that I need to post.
 I also have to get everything into the CVS after Alessandro lurlano told
 me how to correct an authentication issue.
