[EDIT Nov 20th: posted a better 0.4 version]
version 0.3
Ok, state of the art is to run shell scripts with the help of manifest.xml.
The pros are clear: users get a title, a description, & icon in contentlister. [Have a look at attached photos].
changes from 0.2-0.3- usage of manifest.xml [->2 complete different entries for installation & de~]
- back-up of iRex's viewer is copied from USB drive [previous versions: /usr/bin/ipdf.orig]
Precautions when you update from older versions 0.1 & 0.2 or change ipdf version [version 4 & 5 are attached]
Please delete the old pdfviewers or pdf_viewers directionary of the previous pdfviewers##.zip, then extract choosed zip file.
What do I need?
# iRex's .sh ids download [firmware 2.7.1]
# or [SHELL] hack installed [firmware 2.7.0]
What do I have to do?
[1] Download the zip file you want.
[2] Connect iLiad with USB cable.
[3] Extract content of choosed zip-file to the newspapers folder of iLiad's USB drive.
[4] Disconnet iLiad USB cable ["Connected to PC..." logo is gone]. You can use the iLiad again.
[5] Press iLiad's "news" button.
[6] Choose I_have_271.sh if you have firmware 2.7.1.
[7] Contentlister gets updated. Click on the new entry »Do you want install ipdfx?«.
[9] Green Lamp blinks. It only takes few seconds. Blinking stops. Screen get's refreshed. This it was. [no reboot needed]
@ scotty: "export OS_VER=`cat /etc/er_version_commercial" I will think about it. ;-)
good to know: zooming & panning isn't correctly working, ipdf4 doesn't save last page.
