K3 One more terminal emulator for kindle.

[twobob]

myts?

Highly doubtful. very highly doubtful. Extremely highly very doubtful. Unbeliev.... well you get the idea.

Probably not.

[qlob]

baf's xterm and matchbox keyboard port might work though.... you'd have to have a way to launch it...

[geekmaster]

myts depends on reading keyboard input events. To work on K4 and later kindles, it would have to be modified to support the onscreen keyboards, perhaps using touchscreen input events to emulate a keyboard (or K4 fiveway pad support for onscreen keyboard navigation).

Thank you to all for great terminal app for kindle. There is bug with colors in myts. I thing that myts accept only one paramater in esc[ sequence... You can see right colors representation and on second picture screenshot from myts and kindle. I thing that colors handling is done in terminal.c:

terminal.c: * for foreground color, the next 3 bits are background color.
terminal.c: * attributes -- we use bits for foreground and bg color.
terminal.c: case 30: /* Set foreground color: black */
terminal.c: case 31: /* Set foreground color: red */

....

Can anyone help me with solving this problem ??

The source is attached to the top post.

And @matan

Does this support command line script switching?

like ./myts ./dialog myScript.sh

I guess not with the first param being a vt toggle.
will have to read source I guess... Would be really nice.

So, I'm trying to make a Kindleberry Pi (it's on youtube if you haven't heard of it before) and I got everything set up properly. However, I'm trying to make a script that will start an ssh connection, so that I won't have to type in the IP address manually every time. I have the script (raspi.sh), but I'm not sure where to put it or how to run it. I was hoping someone could help me out.

read the ssh/scp HowTo -

At top of forum - select threads by the pre-fix "HowTo" - press show threads.

Sorry, I can't seem to find it. If it's not too much trouble, could you link me to it please?

Top of forum (not top of thread) -
Directly below the blue bar -
Set left drop down box to "HowTo" prefix -
Click right most "show threads" button.

It is the 8th title on the list, has "ssh/scp" in the title.

[twobob]

Okay... first things first.

Damaru would be the guy you would want to PM about it

Also THIS IS THE CORRECT THREAD not the current one you are posting on.

There is AN EXTENSIVE GUIDE HERE offsite that you should probably read if you havent.


one more thing... you dont tell us what is in the SCRIPT - nor do you mention where you got it from.

I don't know how they do things in your coven but my witches are right out of crystal ball time.

So.... Read the links. share the file ("zip it" if you have to to make it attach).

As a TOTAL GUESS I would think the file could easily live on /mnt/us/somehwere/rasbpi.sh and be launched by KUAL

but actual information would help

Alright I found it, thanks.

Oh, I didn't know there was a thread on it here, thanks for that link.

Actually, I'm not really sure if the script will work, I was just trying to figure out how to run it. I wrote it myself, but I've never really used a CLI before, and I'm trying to figure it out. All it does (or should do) is initiate an SSH connection to the Pi.

Actually, I thought about running it using Launchpad, but I want to run the script inside the Terminal itself, not sure if that would work... Anyways, I'll look through those links you gave me, I appreciate it.

[twobob]

meh use KUAL.

send me the script I'll have a look

[sej7278]

sorry for possibly a stupid question, but i don't understand the keymaps. on my kingle 3g (usa, 3.4 firmware, jailbreak, launchpad, usbnet etc.) how do i type in numbers to myts-6?!

[twobob]

hmm IIRC you just use

ALT + Q = 1
ALT + W = 2

etc...

also..

try this... hold down the BACK button, now (without releasing BACK) press the LEFT "BACK" TAB ... (on the left - top one) that will show a keymap...

release the BACK TAB (not the button) then the BACK button to resume normal operation

(mines a bit mangled as I use a HUGE font) [pictured]

Hope that helps.

I finally got to install ipkg on my kindle and playing around with installing plugin for vim (like vim wiki )

One thing I would love to have is the zazen colorscheme for vim and since I am using myts and I read that there are colour support, then it shouldn't be to far from reality. I was able to redefine the vim home directory and to load the zazen colorscheme, and to enable syntax, but it doesn't seems to pick up on the color so I am unsure if there is something about the terminal settings of myts that screws up the colorschem.

Anyone else has experienced that ?
