Upgrade note for ssh/scp users
Transfer of the newer document (actually, any document) by scp to the documents folder **might not** trigger the firmware to re-scan the documents folder (causing what appears to be a display lock-up).
So after: Code:
core2quad kual-v.0.3.2 $ scp KindleLauncher-2.0.azw2 kpw:/mnt/us/documents KindleLauncher-2.0.azw2 100% 84KB 84.0KB/s 00:00 Code:
core2quad kual-v.0.3.2 $ ssh kpw "dbus-send --system /default com.lab126.powerd.resuming int32:1" |

SYSTEM
STANDARDS...
User KNC1 Just raised a point about centralisation of resource. He is addressing the age old problem of standardised resource locations for the extensions to reference. This does two obvious things: (and a crapload of other "less obvious" things that we are going to ignore) 1) Increases the intitial D/L size. 2) Decreases application bloat through re-use of shared resources. Libs aside for just one second let's think about binaries... BINARIES The big OBVIOUS difference for the range of device would be the swap from 4 to 8 bit FB; Thus any applications that call upon system-supported graphics based libs would likely fail when applied to all devices. That is "Not Okay." and until a gtk equivalent solution can be provisioned to step around these graphics limitations then it is fair to say that things like a "terminal" won't be in this list. but other system-based utilities such as BASH - compiled to run on all KUAL supported devices could well make it into there. if anyone wants to add to this pile then using the 2007q3 CS TC is not a bad choice. ADDING TO THE /mnt/us/extensions/system FOLDER. in a word "DONT", I'm thinking of making it immutable or something to really really stop people doing that. GIT I'm going to setup a GIT repo it will eventually hold a /lib /etc and a /bin folder. and some content. https://bitbucket.org/twobob/kual-system If you want something included in a future release put a pull request into that. AFTER you checked the stuff runs on all devices. WHY? Hey. It's not perfect. but it's a start. Personally I'm tired of my HUGE list of stuff in /mnt/us and will be glad to get some (or all) of the support stuff, and (hopefully one day) applications.... all squirrelled away under one folder extensions on all devices. It's just simpler to maintain. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN? Right now. Nothing. Keep going ahead building your stuff just like you build it now. I'm noting this stuff down here as an aide mémoire and a slow hopeful wend towards some kinds of standards. The list of failed attempts to standardise development on the kindle is long and dull. Not keen for this to go on that list. Just be aware as a developer there may be some extra options soon MAKE IT WORK! And yes. You guys who build for the touch with gtk.. if you simply build two versions. one targetting the older FB versions of the graphics libs and one targetting the newer X versions this works to make an application that has a version for all devices. I will demonstrate that principle RSN. I'm playing with the idea of exporting these things "run-time" on a first-pass check basis. still unsure about that. in fact the delivery details are a bit hazy all-in. more later.

@twobob: centralization: sounds interesting. If there is a requirement for a shell, it should have something in the json like: $SHELL -e somescript.sh - and then to run it on you don't need the same shell, but one that works on your kindle. Then it could use xterm or kterm, or whichever shell works on older kindles. Doesn't have to ask for kterm specifically, but for A shell - any shell.

This is awesome! No, wait... YOU are awesome! I've tried to raise awareness about standardization and the messy filesystem a while ago, but nothing came out of it... https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=176822 I really like the direction KUAL is heading and I hope this will allow for easier and faster development for Kindles. |

"The Launcher could be updated and converted into an asw2 app capable of displaying icons in a grid pattern (like other mobile OSes), maintain a simple database of the current apps (no app folders to describe apps) and include the simple package manager I described before. Since this proposed Launcher will also manage the Apps, maybe it should have its name changed. " Kual idea mate. prescient to be mentioned in there. Lots of good points in there No doubt that Ixtab and the other devs have read it too. So perhaps actually "Something" did come of it. Gave it another read now. They are good points. perhaps, given time. some may be implemented. And for the record: I am merely riding on the shoulders of giants. Still, lovely view. more on these things when there is something to share.

You proposed that it should be done, rather than start doing it yourself to lead the way and propose that others follow you. twobob put the horse in front of the cart by starting to do it and then explaining why others should follow. It is something called: "Leadership by Example" in my country. |
