Paperwhite: ssh page turn?
Has anyone worked out how to turn pages from the shell via ssh? I've experimented with some incantations of lipc-set-prop trying to send a message to the reader. i.e.
Code:
lipc-set-prop com.lab126.acxreader gotoPosition 1234 |

hmm. I seem to recall that I have some apps that can "pretend" to send keypresses.
If you have no joy natively I will have a hunt about |

twobob's idea of simulating taps may be the most promising approach. |

Would be great if you find something that works. I'm not sure if sending PgUp/PgDown keyboard symbols would work on the Paperwhite - of course MouseEvents would though. Something like xdotool would work if it's compilable, although that's overkill. |

bit of extra info. I think you only actually need to reference the xdotool lib - the x11r6 one is native IIRC.
