There is one little tweak I would like to perform. At the top of each article, regardless of the periodical, there are four hyperlinks: "Next, Section Menu, Main Menu, Previous". I would like to make these links a size bigger so it's a bit easier to select them with the touchscreen on the 350. Since all periodicals share this feature, I'm hoping for one tweak in some Python code.
While it's true the buttons at the bottom of the screen take the place of some of these links (Next and Previous), sometimes they aren't there:

and I found that I'm constantly using the "section menu" link anyway because it returns to the exact page of the section list from where the article was selected, not the beginning of the list like the other buttons. Sometimes the periodical might have 10 pages of article headers, so this is a big deal.
Where do I start customizing? |
Take a look at customize.profiles:iPadOutput(OutputProfile). Note that the 'touchscreen' property is True, and the touchscreen_news_css is customized for the device in web.feeds.news:BasicNewsRecipe.__init__()
Try creating a special profile for your device with touchscreen=True and appropriate CSS, modeling the iPad profile.
