This is the best idea I have heard all week, so I made one. https://code.launchpad.net/~popey/ubuntu-terminal-app/ubuntu-commands Stick this UbuntuCommands.json on your phone in ~/.config/com.ubuntu.terminal/Layouts/ Open the terminal and you'll get a new keyboard overlay with two options "Welcome" and "Version". Welcome does what Niklas posted above, and Version just does a "system-image-cli --info" which often handy. Here's what it looks like in action:- http://people.canonical.com/~alan/screenshots/device-2015-03-07-145104.png http://people.canonical.com/~alan/screenshots/device-2015-03-07-145114.png http://people.canonical.com/~alan/screenshots/device-2015-03-07-145122.png http://people.canonical.com/~alan/screenshots/device-2015-03-07-145132.png I added a "sudo reboot" in the command so it asks for your pin/password and then reboots the phone, ready for you to hand to someone for a demo. I called it "Ubuntu Commands" because they really are very specific to Ubuntu rather than generic shell commands. Suggestions for others to add would be most welcome. We'd also love to see more of these JSON profiles, and could feature them in a future release of the terminal app. Cheers, -- Alan Pope Community Manager Canonical - Product Strategy +44 (0) 7973 620 164 alan.p...@canonical.com http://ubuntu.com/ -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone Post to : ubuntu-phone@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-phone More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
