I still have a lot to learn about calibre, and I am eternally grateful to the hacks provided by NiLuJe and the gang...
Compared to that, I just do a lot of talking...  |
All hails to the mighty code wizards
Hm I think helpers like you, Eschwartz, do alot of good here by keeping the dev threads cleaner. And you might have saved the code wizards sanity and alot of their time hehe... since I've seen (read) how much time they actually spend on doing the same you do: help noobs like me to get safe and sound through the process of finding and applying the hacks they need.
Speaking of, yeehaw: It all went smooth thanks to stunning structural and documentational work done by NiLuJe and your help.
Downgraded, jailbroken, upgraded back to 5.4.5.1, applied BDL and the folder trick to be safe from the evil SIX, KUAL is running and the temporare JBpatch by Kaznelson. No more silly margins and way better font-sizing...
Aunt EDIT(H) says: NiLuJe's latest Python snapshot and cover hack are up and running now, too :-) I use book cover for screensaver, always wanted that on my Sony hehe
Also the Helper and MR Package Installer are running - MRPI is really really awesome!
The big surprise to me was the Battery Status (also running fine) for two reasons:
1) it shows °Celsius next to Fahrenheit
2) it allows for tweaking the battery symbol to show percentage inside
Coming week, if my workmates let me go for 2-3 days, I hope I'll figure how to...
- Exchange the fonts except for the condensed one
- Try to gain back some of the top (bezel shadow) and bottom (frontlight clouding) margins while keeping the horizontal margin settings Kaznelson applied. Awesome would be to have those verticals margins resize with the horizontal margins using the 3 gui settings
- Hyphenation - Calibre plugin HyphenateThis I guess?
- Collections: figure what to use: CM or Librarian for the 5.4.5.1
Thanks again for helping me get this far by pointing me in the right directions. Thanks to you it's been a reading and dloading only experience in the dev threads
