Software / Atari Lynx Emulator Working!
« on: March 11, 2006, 11:48:02 am »Quote
thank you very much for your help but how can i set up a magnified session on my c3100 running last cacko rom . i try to see if qconsole has a magnified option but it has not !.You should go to /home/QtPalmtop/apps/ and into the folder where Qkonsole is. Then edit the desktop file (probably qkonsole.desktop). In that file, you should find a line that says:
I've put all the files in a directory but when i start handy_sdl romimage my zaurus hangs....so i think problem is the resolution at 480x640....
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=118030\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]
Display=640x480/144dpi,480x640/144dpi
Put a hash (#) at the beginning of that line to comment it out. You should then be able to switch it into magnified mode.

I noticed that the source for HandySDL has finally been released. By the looks of things, the original author lost the source and started it again. Took me a couple of hours, but I've got it working! I've been after this for years. I love my Lynx.
The screen seems to be rotated for non-clamshell Zaurii, and the sound stutters, but apart from that, it look pretty much full speed on my SL-C750. I'll have a look at rotating it. Make sure you run it in magnified mode.
You'll need the executable and the lynx boot rom. You'll have find the game roms yourself.

Off Topic forum / Re: Transcoding Network Media Player Solution?

Any ideas or suggestions?
As you said yourself, VLC should do the job. I've used to it to transcode DVDs to watch on the Zaurus in bed.

Updated again. It will now convert all HTML/XML entities that are in CP-1252 or ISO 8859-1 range, and all non-ascii chars will now convert to their nearest match or relevant string. Previously, it would use a space when it didn't understand a character.
Also, when converting from HTML, it will look for certain tags as hints to format the text, thus retaining formatting.
There's not much else I can think of doing to it now. The only thing left on the list is to only allow line breaks on certain punctuation. After that, I don't know, so if anyone has any ideas let me know.
Give it a whirl.

Pi-Sync is what you're looking for. Great program. Linux, Windows, and Zaurus versions are available (and I also compiled it on FreeBSD), and synching between them is very easy.
It consists of various apps, Ko/Pi (organizer), Ka/Pi (address book), Pwm/Pi (password manager), Om/Pi (Email), and KP/Pi (VoIP). These programs saved my Zaurus as I was getting increasingly annoyed with the built-in apps.

Software / Zeditor Syntax Highlighting
« on: November 05, 2005, 11:25:26 am »
I've been using ZEditor for years for programming on the Zaurus, but I've never had any syntax highlighting. Has anybody ever had it working? What am I missing in the options if so? I can put some keywords into the color... options page, but is has no effect.

Just got Jabp on again. It installs fine. This latest version looks cleaner than the one I had before. It still has the showstopper bug in it though: If you have a dialog with drop-down menus in it and open such a menu near the bottom of its containing window, the window will try to redraw itself and get into an infinite loop.
Then you have to telnet in and kill all cvm processes, obviously losing all recent data.

I've just updated it a bit, it now converts almost all numeric HTML entities, and the most common text-based ones (" < > and all that). Use the link as above.

I've been running Jabp on my C-750. Funnily enough, I just uninstalled it before coming across this thread. The problem with it is that the dialogs are all messed up, size-wise. It's hard to read. I can't remember what I did to get it working, but it couldn't have been that difficult. If I get a chance, I'll download the latest version and have a look.

I thought I'd make this available, as someone mentioned the horror of ebook formatting in the opie-reader thread. By the way, one of the best features of opie-reader: reading gzipped text. I have everything in that format.
textbath zaurus executable
It's my Textbath program for re-formatting text files. It's getting pretty fat now. The only thing missing is that is doesn't convert HTML/XML entities fully yet (it will only replace about three of them at the moment).
At it's most basic, it will remove all of the line-breaks and replace multi-line breaks with a single one, indenting new paragraphs if defined. Thus the text comes out much cleaner and easier to read on word-wrapping applications. It can decide when to add a line-break or paragraph based on the length of the current line, start-of-line string matching, and capitalization. It can also re-join hyphenated lines, remove tabs and HTML/XML tags (and convert some HTML/XML entities), add <p></p> and <br> tags, convert all non-ASCII characters into pure ASCII (e.g. the © symbol into (C), that annoying binary apostrophe into an ASCII one, and all others), display file stats.
You can also use it to convert files between Unix/DOS/OldMac text formats without any editing. I don't know what I would have done without it.
It needs to be run from the terminal. Let me know if you find it useful, or have any problems with it.

I've written a multi-track playback mechanism, No GUI for it or anything at the moment, but everything streams very nicely. It supports a block-based audio data approach, like on most digital recorders, so you'll be able to drag around music sections and the like. I'll be adding recording capability to it at some point, and eventually get round to doing a GUI for it. I haven't managed to do any QT stuff yet though.
I was thinking of turning it into a tracker, but that would mean adding sample rate conversion which is not necessary for multi-track recording. Also, everything streams from disk at the moment and a memory-based approach is better for trackers. I'll think about it.
Hmmm....
