Lightbulb trickd - fullscreen & pageflow with proper UI

If you feel adventurous, or are annoyed by all this extra clicking you need to do when you're using flowmytears, here's a treat. I've written a slightly better version. It consists of a small program that runs in the background and adds menu options for page flow and/or fullscreen. Download, install, run, head over to PDF file, bring up the menu. It will still cause reader to drop back to main menu, but it'll bring the document back.

Standard disclaimer: if it breaks your DR800, you get to keep both pieces. It works for me, but I don't guarantee it will for you. Hopefully it will :) I've used it for few days now, and I haven't found it affecting battery life in a significant way. If you notice any unexpected behavior or find any bugs, tell me, and I'll do my best (which doesn't mean I'll be able to fix it, I'm not a proper C developer...)

Download it from here:

Feel free to look at the source, point and laugh, comment, then laugh some more. Send patches, too! And if you feel generous, here's my Amazon wishlist 8)
