I've been bored lately, and am looking for a project to work on (from scratch, I have yet to master working on a team). What ideas do people have?
Guidelines: -Not necessarily Zaurus- or N810-specific -Nothing 3D -Nothing TOO massive (like a desktop environment or web browser, strangely enough I don't feel as though a game would be "massive") -No "contribute to existing projects" requests, please (unless you feel excruciatingly, and I do mean excruciatingly, strongly that that's the way to go) -Preferably only requiring one or two external toolkits/libs Notes: -It will be a C/C++ app -The only external lib I really have experience with is SDL, a little FLTK. I'm willing to learn to use common libs like ogg/vorbis -There are no guarantees that this program will ever be {started|completed|stable} or will {follow your idea exactly|follow anybody's idea at all}. Thanks. |

A little more work on printing simple text files from Zaurus:
CODE cat /mnt/card/Documents/test.txt | smbclient //ATHLON/HPPSC500 \ -N -c "put - me" The above referenced print command has some limitations that can be worked around. My printer does not know how to interpret Unix (Linux) new lines at all. It stairsteps the new lines. However, if you have Textmaker installed, you can save your text file as a DOS text file, and this helps. But printer still does not know how to interpret new lines that exceed 80 characters. Word wrap does not seem to help. So if you hit the return at the end of each line (before reaching 80 characters), then the next line will print. One more thing: add some extra lines to the end of your text file, or the last line(s) will not print. |
