Hi,
Please find the script below. This has to be ran from Kite or Launchpad (I have never tested it on launchpad).
The keyboard entry part is from Geekmaster.
Please put all your roms in the ./roms directory.
The program will start with ls of the roms, which must have .gb extension. You then type the rom you want.
I had to use aA for the enter key, because the kindle screen somehow is not deactivated.
The code is not pretty, and I am sure someone on the forum can make this A LOT better.
Code:
#!/bin/sh
#===================================================
# getkb - get translated ascii keys from K3 keyboard
# v1.2 by geekmaster
# STDOUT: pressed keys, until Enter key pressed.
#---------------------------------------------------
getkb() {
