PRS+: Enhanced firmware for Sony Reader, Folders, Games & more

[Analogus]

quisvir:

NoNo, you are not bursting any bubble - the thing with crashing is even my own vague explanation. Question is wether this does any harm. If not, I regard it as, let's say, dirty workaround ;-)


VICTORSJG:
I'll make my super-simple code a bit more clean and will post it here/on my website for downloading. So far I just put it into standard_actions because I was not able to produce a separate menue in PRS-settings.

Edit: code in the package below:

contributionAnalogus.zip

It's my altered standard_actions-file. You'll find the code easy - read comments.
Icon-defs are altered and not compatible with the standard-defs. Language-defs are altered too. Each altering in lang.ods is coloured for easy comparison. Add. necessary files to be found in the folder structure.

Please don't lough about my rough coding - I started learning programming with starting altering PRS+ :-)

That's good to hear

I would recommend running some tests to make sure everything settings and cache related is written correctly. For instance, if you make some changes in the current book, and then 'reboot', are these changes saved? Otherwise, I wouldn't expect any problems, but you never know of course. It's not designed to be crashed on purpose

quisvir:

I'm testing it since one week. No problems so far, cache never been deleted. And in my code above a backup/restore-tool for the cache will give a second chance ;-)

There is just one point:
To 'function' as expected man has to open at least one book one time. But that's to be expected on an ebook-reader...

Thank you very much, analogous. I think I'll test it And no laugh, I'm learning javascript with PRS too.

At least I'm not alone

Learning JS when having a good reason is fun...

Besides: on the Spanish EReader website I stumpled uppon a 'shark version' of PRS+ with functions to alter font size more fine grained. I never tried it out, but could this code be a good contribution?
My spanish knowledge is below zerro so mabe you are better informed.

Could you link it please?
The only way I know (and it only works with newer readers) is fooling firmware about physical dpi.

[Terisa de morgan]

I think I know what you are talking about. I haven't tested it. Tomorrow I'll try to gather the info and post it here, if it's useful for you.

This was also reported form VictorSJG per mail to the developers.
AFAICS this is done be altering style.css via shell-scripts, adding/changing two lines which set font-size and line-hight.

Could be done probable more easier direct from JS.

But neverless good finding and contribution,
same goes for Analogus Save/Resort/Reset PRS+Settings

It's a defect than.

I've already included it, I've modified lang.ods but it looks like it doesn't work. I have to check it (today I've been doing some modifications out of pride, not interest for me )

BTW: Beta version doesn't load now in my reader, core to big

[Analogus]

Terisa:

If you just include my code from my file some functions may not work. My idea was to use my own language-section in the lang.ods. Most of my simple functions point to this part of the lang.ods. Look at the beginning of the file - there you will find a line:

LA = Core.lang.getLocalizer("ANALOGUS");

which points to the lang.ods. LA() is used instead of L() for localisation.

A couple of functions require certain files and/or folders on the reader. Without the right folder some of the functions will not work but just quit without message.

If you find a way to make a new menu in prs-settings with the functions let me know. I was not able to do that...
