Yes. That was the main idea. Although I'm not sure how usable it would be. Note that I can't imagine opening multiple sessions in 770, although I do that all the time on regular sized desktops. So it might be enough to use the TN-functionality. The problem with the TN approach could be (haven't tested) when you have more than a small amount of sessions. How does TN handle let's say, 20 "appviews"/applications open at the same time? (again, just guessing this time since I haven't tried this myself on maemo). If terminal emu use will be restricted to the VKB and the pointer, one could do more with usability by integrating some prediction on shell commands and file names directly in the VKB (some kind of small file/path selector) and some vkb-local command history mainly so that often used commands can be selected quickly, even between the sessions). This is probably impossible to do without taking VKB apart and it would require specialized code, so I'd think it's a no-no. Probably not worth it iff BT keyboards will work. Just my 20 mm worth :-). ak. _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
