    GP2X Text Entry Idea + Prototype App

    Well... TI89 has few more keys ;) so it's somehow better suited for this kind of job. But I think that it will be possible also on gp2x. Maybe it's just me, but I find dasher rather hard for this task. Few minutes ago I tried to enter "http://www.gp32x.de"... And failed. What dasher...

    What Os Do You Use?

    Using only Linux (or any other POSIX like system) may seem odd to people accustomed to Windows because they can only see limitations ('only few comercial games, almost no comercial programs etc'). They don't understand Linux as they look at it from wrong perspective. Once you're deep into...

    GP2X Text Entry Idea + Prototype App

    My first prototype in C required 64kB for dictionary of 2000 words. But that prototype was complicated as hell so I throw it away. Currently I'm working on dictionary stored in BER-like format that will require about 32kB for 2000 words. It's worth to mention that this format is designed to...

    GP2X Gp2x Joystick Actual Facts

    Relax... By having source code we are limited by only 2 factors: hardware and time :) Oh, and I think that we shouldn't distract Squidge while he is working on UAE :D

    GP2X Text Entry Idea + Prototype App

    I know dasher as it is included in Gnome (Applications->Accessibility->Dasher). It is fast but it requires *insane* amount of focus, and rather large screen. Of course we are interested :)

    GP2X Text Entry Idea + Prototype App

    To be honest I haven't thought about that... Your idea is excellent :) I opt for variant with space in central bank. It is still 'ABC' layout (which is beginner-friendly), but it will enable joystick-only-t9 (it cannot be done without pressing additional key when using central bank). IMO...

    GP2X Text Entry Idea + Prototype App

    'Multi-tap' systems require waiting for timeout when adjacent letters are on the same key. Digraphs like "on" and "ed" are common in english. However I think that the biggest advantage of such 'multi-tap' system is similarity to text entry on some mobile phones. Many mobile phone users are...

    Distraction From Delay Of Gp2x

    Just hold shift and select next point. To draw rectangle select an area and use edit->stroke_selection. I admit that Gimp's GUI is not very user friendly, but after a while You can get used to it :)
