Kartu, I only found out there was a ChipIn for the 650 after it had finished. Are you accepting donations so we can buy you a nice cup of tea and a scone or something like that as a way of saying thanks?

Also... how are you getting on with 650 port, and I hope you had a nice Kartumas!

[kartu]

Erm, Halk, thanks for the suggestion.
I'll probably setup proper "donate" buttons on the project site in a few weeks.

In case anything goes wrong, don't worry, 505's are practically unbrickable.

Thanks, Kartu! Everything working as expected. I've only been able to change the main text font as the font I installed is 3.7Mb in size. Can anybody here about recommend a font that can replace all three fonts, cover all commonly used Kanji and fitting in memory?

In which format are your Japanese books?

Excellent!

How's the 650 port coming along?

Unicode plain text.

So far porting is going on quite smoothly.

Unicode plain text.

Then you shouldn't need more than one font, the "Dutch801 Rm BT" is used in txt viewer. Well, different font is used for titles, the "Swis721 BT". You can do the following, in main.xml find:

<style font="Dutch801 Rm BT">
<style id="text" size="12"/>
</style>

And move style with id "text" to the font="Swis721 BT" block. The reader will start using Swiss721 BT in TXT viewer.

Kartu,

I've a the problem: I can only have eight applications in the menú of "games and utilities" (PRS+ 1.1.3). Now I have five games, dictionary, calculator and book history. For exemple, To put the chess, I will remove any other application or game.

Why is this happening? how I can fix it?

There is no limitation on number of items in that submenu. It could be that errors in one addon are affecting others. Or maybe filesystem on your SD card / IM has errors and needs to be fixed with checkdisk or the likes. I have no other ideas, how to explain it.

Anyway, this won't work in 1.1.3:

kbook.autoRunRoot.sandbox.getSoValue = Core.system.getSoValue;
kbook.autoRunRoot.sandbox.hasNumericButtons = Core.config.compat.hasNumericButtons;

You can remove the first line and replace second with:

kbook.autoRunRoot.hasNumericButtons = true;

I remember there is some limitation regarding total size of all such applicatons. I had some issues developing virtual keyboard. I was not able to put it into the same directory like other applications (dictionary and so on). I had to put some applications into separate "line of compilation".
Unfortunatelly I do not remember details, I did not do anything with PRS for long time - too much work

Like Marek, I assume we are testing addons against max size for JS-files.
Kravitz came up with some sort of addons2 in beta-test-pack#4 (bp4.zip) if I remember correct.

Well, addons are loaded as one chunk. So if there was max size problem, none would be visible.

I've located my problem, it is strange ...

The game works well in the PRS+ 1.1.3 (thanks, had already made the correction indicated by Kartu) and no limit on the applications menu "games & utilities", unless you use this version of the dictionary of m-land . The strange thing is that this dictionary works well and is compatible with all applications but stops working when there are nine applications. With the dictionary without zoom-dynamic I have no problem.

to add an addicional addons1 folder to use more applications and avoid the problem that Surquize said, is it necesary only to add a new addonsfile1 and addonspath1 to the prsp.js apart from the folder addons1?

Since addon code is first concatenated then executed, uncatched error in one of the addons could stop others from loading. Check if m-land's code is try / catched.

VICTORSJG
No, there is no such config option.
Code from Kravitz should work, however. (If you can't find it, it shouldn't be hard to add it to prsp.js)
