It would help to have an attachment, or download links. I cannot use screenshots.

Source.? I like to read the source of things that want my username and password.
Much as I am sure you are a lovely person. Any chance of? Last edited by twobob; 09-29-2012 at 10:25 AM. Reason: GM pointed out my horrible grammar and twyos ;) |

Awesome!
It'd be nice if one can run Skype in background while reading. Does anyone know how to bring a process to the front on the screen (in Xorg)? Last edited by thatworkshop; 09-30-2012 at 03:10 PM. |

IIRC correctly it would be injecting the relevant title in the titlebar - info on the wiki.

Much appreciate the app but I would prefer to see the source. and build it myself.
Many thanks |

I think we should add the GMLIB eink library to this so we can display incoming Skype video. We will have to wait for USB OTG support and ARM linux webcam drivers before we can add outgoing video. But we could send a static video image of an avatar image or a photo saved on the kindle.
These are some reasons why we need source code and build instructions. |

True he did. which said that the app would stop working after 60 days.
Fair enough I still don't see why sharing the build folders would hurt but okay. I'll stop asking. |

It also said you could renew it. (the developer key)
But you have a valid point. Last edited by qlob; 09-30-2012 at 02:17 PM. |
