I'm having problems with myts and pageturn because of the keymaps (I think), and I'm unable to run waitforkey (with ; or `nothing happens). How can I know my kindle keymap? and why debug mode works now with ; and not with `? Should I reset to factory? Software version is the same, 2.5.8
Thank you once again for your help and regards

The "waitforkey" command is a linux command that you type at an SSH prompt at the linux command line in the kindle. It is not a searchbar shortcut command. You need to install USBnetwork from NiLuJe. |

Okay, you have waitforkey running.
The keycode number might depend on your firmware versions (2.x or 3.x) because keycodes are logical values assigned in firmware and the 3.x firmware was designed for a K3.
Whatever codes you see from waitforkey are what you need to use to read that key in a script or program. |

I'll post in pageturn topic and try to solve it :-)
geekmaster, thanks for all your help and sorry for bothering you with noob's nonsenses

What are you trying to do in the search bar shortcuts? Just like keycodes, the shortcut commands depend on firmware versions, and 3.x firmware will use the same commands whether on a DXG or a K3.
2.x firmware uses backtab '`' and 3.x firmware uses tilde '~'. So, `help is for 2.x on a DXG, and ~help is for 3.x on a K3 or a DXG. As far as I know, because I have not tested it... |
Now others who wish to give advice have the same information that I have.
