Thanks, the keyboard issue seems better. I will keep testing. The editor trick would work well if editing a file but it won't help when viewing the interpretter output. For example, when doing the labs it will often run off screen and I want to scroll up to understand something. Perhaps a workaround for the scrollbars would be to add a page up, page down button similar to F1-F6. Just an idea...
In terms of jconsole requiring root, I can't intuitively figure out why that would be. If it uses the same libraries as jqt then I would imagine the permissions are the same. If you wanted me to help validate I'm happy to. If you include the jconsole binary in an APK, I can just unzip the APK in my term and try it out. It's OK if not too. Ultimately, I think jconsole is an edge case and jqt is the long term solution. On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 7:34 AM, bill lam <[email protected]> wrote: > I also noticed those problems.
