Do you already use those commands on a desktop computer? The only people that would want to use them on a kindle are already running them someplace else. |

First of all thank you baf for making kterm (and everyone else who helped).
It really bothered me that there is no way to change the height of the keyboard, as some terminal applications require a minimum size of 80x24. Without being able to change the keyboard height this meant that I had to use a really small font. So if anyone is interested, I added the option and changed some other stuff:

Nice @rakksor. Can the split keyboard be used in landscape on a KOA? Seems like it is a "resolution dependent" feature? When in landscape on a KOA the keyboard doesn't split.

So put the following into bin/kterm.conf Code:
kb_conf_path = /mnt/us/extensions/kterm/layouts/keyboard-landscape.xml Code:
bin/kterm -l layouts/keyboard-landscape.xml |

Actually, no joy. Editing the .conf file results in the same keyboard (not the split keyboard). However, launching kterm (from within kterm) with the command "bin/kterm -l layouts/keyboard-landscape.xml" does work. With that I have a shell in a shell though.
Note: I can see the split keyboard for a second but then it gets overwritten and invoking all other commands like dark mode and orientation = R does work from the .conf file. Last edited by picree; 08-04-2018 at 11:31 PM. |

I do believe you are over-thinking the entire problem. |

Sorry to take @rakksor time up as I am beginning to believe the terminal extension may not be the issue. I am hopeful by troubleshooting the problem I can arrive at a global solution for all my extensions. Several of my KUAL extensions exhibit evidence of a messed up PATH. @NiLuJe suggested reinstalling the latest hotfix and reinstalling the troublesome extensions. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling KUAL. Didn't help. Any additional suggestions appreciated. |

No yourself.
Run the correct KUAL build. Don't screw with or alter anything installed by our packaging. If something fails for you, it is a local problem to your installation or your usage. Everything has been working for everyone else, except you, for years. That should tell you where the problem is. |

Actually the problem is that I hardcoded the keyboard layout into the shell script that gets executed by KUAL for some reason:
Code:
#!/bin/sh EXTENSION=/mnt/us/extensions/kterm PARAM="-l ${EXTENSION}/layouts/keyboard.xml" export TERM=xterm TERMINFO=${EXTENSION}/vte/terminfo ${EXTENSION}/bin/kterm ${PARAM} "$@" Code:
#!/bin/sh EXTENSION=/mnt/us/extensions/kterm export TERM=xterm TERMINFO=${EXTENSION}/vte/terminfo ${EXTENSION}/bin/kterm "$@" |
