[maemo-developers] Emacs work: porting to Maemo

2007-01-24 Thread Ted Zlatanov
I'm currently working on porting Emacs to Maemo, and specifically getting the Emacs frames to bring up the pop-up keyboard. Thanks to help from people on #maemo, especially Aaron Levinson, I'm getting somewhere. I can now see the keyboard if I lose focus (click on a menu outside Emacs), and once

I think the 770/N800 break with OS support from ITOS2006 to ITOS2007 is reasonable. The 770 was a first-generation device, really the first of its kind. I hope the N800 doesn't get deprecated in the same way, and I hope Nokia at least considers giving some discount to people buying the N800 that
