"Recent Files" Folder

Justy · 04-13-2009, 01:42 AM

Is there a plan to add this to future versions of Openinkpot?

I see it has been raised as Ticket #79 (new enhancement) on the Openinkpot website, but I don't see any indication of how soon, if ever, it might be implemented.

Yeah, I'll get around to it soon. It is a priority, along with "favorites". As soon as I get a little free time it'll be done.

Thanks for the update, very much appreciated.

Does this mean you've flashed OpenInkpot on your new BeBook, Justy?

Yes I have and I'm quite liking it. I'm using version 0.2, set it up just the way I like it and it's all going well. I've been talking it up to everyone that will sit still to listen.

All I'm missing is the "Recent Files" folder and "in eBook" dictionary lookup to be complete. One step at a time. At least now I have my lovely small fonts and page numbers along with a progress bar! The bookmarks work a treat and I quite like the chapter marks in the progress bar.

Kudos to the OpenInkpot team, a lot of work has gone into this software.

Well, you'll be happy to know that after recent files and favorites, I'm probably going to make a dictionary app. That one's been on my personal priority list for a while (and I realize coolreader in OI has dictionary support, but I don't like it at all the way it's implemented - my dictionary app is going to be so much cooler). Cheers!

I do not want to hijack this thread with my own OpenInkpot wishes, but I certainly would like to second your kudos to the OpenInkpot team. They are creating a really fine piece of work!

As a member of the OI team, allow me to say that I personally have no problem with you hijacking the thread to tell me how awesome I am. I would also not mind you hijacking the thread to tell me what a handsome man I am, or how thick and lustrous my hair is. Just saying. You know, feel free. Oh! I also happen to be wearing a sweater that brings out the colour in my eyes. You can try riffing on that, too.

Ahhhhhhhh, an artist with true humility.

Great work.

quickhand · 04-14-2009, 12:28 PM

Yes, I've always considered humility to be my greatest strength - though I have so many great strengths that it isn't easy to choose just one.

But seriously, I'm doing the app development, which is the easier, more instantly gratifying stuff. The people doing the hard work, the infrastructure work, the kernel hacking, the porting, the packaging, are the ones who deserve the real credit: jekhor, dottedmag, LunohoD, xl0. They're the magic-men. Any two-bit programmer can do what I do.

ps. Open call to two-bit programmers to join in app development!

Hmm... I have done most of my work on 8 bit and 16 bit and most recently 32bit. I have never been a 2-bit programmer. So, I guess I don't qualify.

You'll count as 4-to-16 2-bit programmers

Neither if you don't know how to spell endian.
