Hello Developers,
I've assembled an installer for the improved contentLister (with more items on a page).
- I've tried to make this robust and safe
- The menu enables to install, un-install an set the number of items on a page
- the program itself is the same as last time (with a repaired cursor, thanks ericshliao)
- I've started a new thread for this because the install procedure and attachments are new. For some background: see the old thread (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34889)
- Install: just unpack the bin-tgz on on a memory card, navigate to it and run the installer.
- Sources: for those who want to compile themselves: use the src-tgz: after unpacking this can be compiled in the same way as the original Irex contentLister (build_from_scratch.sh...)
Happy new year!
Hansel.
EDIT 6-jan-2009: version 1.0.3. Install scripts no longer get in 'Recent Documents'. In the previous version this caused some Iliads to reboot endlessly. Sources have not changed.
EDIT 8-jan-2009: version 1.0.4. Install scripts now accept all firmware versions with 2.12 in it (book edition has 2.12.1)
EDIT 21-feb-2009: If you have a modified start-up script, you may have to set-up things manually. See Haven's post further in this thread (post 53)
EDIT 23-mar-2009: newLister 1.0.5: Minor update to ease the 'Iliad OS'. No need to upgrade.
- NewLister tries to read the nr of items on a page from /mnt/settings/newLister. It expects one line with just a number. This value can be overruled on the command line.
- Tweaked layout a little: a bit less spacing, a bit more room for the text.
