Triode many thanks - didn't expect something quite so quickly. This is is a great step in the right direction. Jumping in lists works pretty well - the sensitivity problem you mention is very apparent, but I have a feeling this maybe a FLIRC problem as I've had the same thing when using FLIRC on other devices/application. Perhaps this is something we could take up with the FLIRC developers? The search functionality is not quite intuitive, I'd much prefer to be able to enter letters directly. Not clear why having this would break full keyboard input - can't the numbers continue to send a number on initial press and then move on to letters? I'll do some more testing later and report back, but for now thanks again. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slackhead's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13963 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=99395 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
