**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Jun 18 02:59:56 2011 Jun 18 03:33:22 bizarre, there's apparently a wifi mouse made by HP Jun 18 03:33:36 huh? Jun 18 03:33:57 http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/17/hp-ships-50-wifi-mobile-mouse-gives-your-bluetooth-radio-a-bre/ Jun 18 03:34:17 wonder if anyone would want to use it on a webos device, but I suppose there's already bluetooth.. Jun 18 03:56:47 * PatrickC mumbles "stupid troubleshooting" Jun 18 03:57:18 troubleshooting is a great skill to have and should be practiced often Jun 18 03:57:30 I practice it all the time lol Jun 18 03:57:51 I'm always trying to look through thousands of chars of code to find the one , I missed lol Jun 18 03:58:28 try some code validation Jun 18 03:58:31 like jslint Jun 18 04:00:34 eh, its easier for me to look at the code right now Jun 18 04:06:16 grr.. put something where it didn't belong.. Jun 18 04:08:59 ok, visual port is done.. now.. tomorrow, I'll work on getting the visual to work.. Jun 18 05:01:51 --> $('can').innerHTML; gets content of id="can" is that right? Jun 18 05:10:02 prototype, yes Jun 18 05:10:45 ok, that is what i thought, must be some other issue Jun 18 05:10:48 thanks Jun 18 05:25:03 that's not multistage safe LoneStar99 Jun 18 05:25:25 gotta use this.controller.get('id') Jun 18 05:29:10 oil_pre: yeah i know, using it for a website, always use "this.controller.get" in mojo Jun 18 05:29:29 lol Jun 18 05:29:32 ok Jun 18 08:08:39 i need to display time like in this example.. Jun 18 08:08:42 http://www.webosroundup.com/2010/03/quick-review-myclock/ Jun 18 08:08:55 how can i do? Jun 18 08:16:29 can sumbody tell me? Jun 18 10:40:52 you should probably buy the app that is being reviewed in that article if you want to display time like that article ... Jun 18 12:48:14 is it possible to crossapp-launch com.palm.app.email, open the composing view and attach a file to the email? Jun 18 12:57:14 ough... Jun 18 12:57:17 solved that Jun 18 12:57:31 but oh my... my app is hitting the emulator performance quite a bit Jun 18 12:57:37 much worse than the email-client itself Jun 18 13:36:13 * PatrickC yawns goodmorning Jun 18 13:54:28 twbbas Jun 18 14:29:47 Something I don't get. On android there are at least 10 office suites but on webos there isn't any. Just the same docs to go that came with the phone 2 years ago. Why aren't there any office suites Jun 18 14:30:20 there are a lot of things for android that don't exist for webos... Jun 18 14:31:06 I know but a smrt phone without office suite isn't a smartphone Jun 18 14:31:17 Even palm os had one Jun 18 14:31:36 ya, they must have just forgot Jun 18 14:31:49 Lol Jun 18 14:32:13 Now I read the touch pad doesn't have one at launch either Jun 18 14:32:26 zamo: At least is (supposedly) getting one Jun 18 14:32:58 Wasn't the original pre suppose to get one also Jun 18 14:34:14 sounds like a ripe opportunity if you want to write an office suite for the TP. Jun 18 14:34:53 be sure to build in very good support for MS Office file formats too while your at it. Jun 18 14:37:33 Heh, had my Pre2 out at the snow today. 1.4 overclocked was running at 7 degrees. :P Jun 18 14:39:00 Don't have the resources to do such a thing. Jun 18 14:39:38 sounds pretty trivial though, I cant see why its not done. Jun 18 14:40:15 if android has 10 then it must be dead simple Jun 18 14:40:41 and 8 of the 10 are likely pirated versions of the other 2 Jun 18 14:40:57 No interest I suppose. Almost like webos doesn't exist or was written off Jun 18 14:41:15 in terms of market share, that is exactly correct. Jun 18 14:57:09 * twbbas wishes he could see where webOS will be a year from now Jun 18 14:58:20 yes, either it's going to die and I'm going to know how BeOS users felt, or it's going to take off like a rocket Jun 18 14:58:44 I feel it will be the latter Jun 18 15:18:05 * PatrickC runs through door before oil locks it Jun 18 15:18:52 he's slick like that Jun 18 15:19:51 whew. made it :) Jun 18 15:21:44 grr... Jun 18 15:21:50 * PatrickC needs a new laptop... Jun 18 15:21:58 * twbbas needs a TouchPad Jun 18 15:22:22 * PatrickC needs a Pre3 and a TouchPad Jun 18 15:22:31 same Jun 18 15:22:52 twabbs: 128MB RAM, 15GB HDD, 686MHz P2 processor... Jun 18 15:22:53 * twbbas wants HP to "make it right" by giving him a free Pre 3 Jun 18 15:23:11 lol Jun 18 15:23:14 yeah you need a new one Jun 18 15:23:18 yeah lol Jun 18 15:23:23 11 yrs old Jun 18 15:23:27 I think.. lol Jun 18 15:23:29 I bought this one last year before college Jun 18 15:23:53 4gb RAM, 320GB HD, 2.2MHz processor Jun 18 15:23:58 14" screen Jun 18 15:23:58 * PatrickC is a 10th grader lol Jun 18 15:24:04 :p Jun 18 15:24:15 14" is the perfect size for me really Jun 18 15:24:24 Portable and tiny yet still useable Jun 18 15:24:40 anything more then 13.3" is good for me, just give me something haha Jun 18 15:24:43 * sash_ also has a 14" laptop Jun 18 15:24:54 Once you get into the 15" and above, the keyboards start having the the num pad on the right = huge laptop Jun 18 15:25:09 that's a 17" iirc Jun 18 15:25:31 I went to Best Buy to try out their display of laptops and every 15" and above had a num pad Jun 18 15:25:42 Yeah, it's useful but it's not worth compromising the portability Jun 18 15:26:53 yeah Jun 18 15:27:09 I've never seen a 15" with a num pad before though Jun 18 15:27:29 maybe it's a new thing Jun 18 15:27:59 probably Jun 18 15:28:00 when I was buying this Dell one, I was deciding between similar HP and Dell laptops Jun 18 15:28:12 Now that I find webOS is coming to HP PCs... I wish I could have gone with the HP one Jun 18 15:38:08 time to get coding Jun 18 15:38:23 if I don't respond for a while.. ^^ is why :) Jun 18 15:47:27 grr.. why won't this work.. :/ Jun 18 15:52:53 lol that's me everytime I code Jun 18 15:54:07 heh Jun 18 15:55:14 most of my comments start out as print statements for that reason Jun 18 15:56:02 Me too Jun 18 15:57:11 for a while I made them all if statements that depended on a debug flag...but I never looked at how much that affected performance as well as I would've liked to Jun 18 15:58:05 * PatrickC crosses fingers Jun 18 16:00:45 nope :/ Jun 18 16:41:46 whoa Jun 18 16:41:50 what? Jun 18 16:41:54 the Spaz HD UI is such a mess Jun 18 16:42:01 it's aweful Jun 18 16:42:03 * PatrickC wants to see Jun 18 16:42:14 there was a download somewhere Jun 18 16:42:24 there shouldn't be Jun 18 16:42:27 I don't think Jun 18 16:42:32 TibFib? Jun 18 16:42:49 hmmm? Jun 18 16:42:54 phoque_uni: please email your thoughts Jun 18 16:43:04 Tibfib, where to? Jun 18 16:43:05 it is an Enyo app so under NDA Jun 18 16:43:21 coj @ funkatron.com or tibfib1 @ gmail.com Jun 18 16:43:26 ^ that's why I didn't think there was a dl anywhere Jun 18 16:43:33 ok Jun 18 16:44:06 TibFib: is there a beta people can join? Jun 18 16:44:12 PatrickC: no Jun 18 16:44:23 If you are in early access, check early access. Jun 18 16:44:34 its in there? Jun 18 16:44:42 if I can, I might check :) Jun 18 16:44:49 If you are in early access, check early access. Jun 18 16:45:15 ok Jun 18 16:46:19 phoque_uni: actually, go ahead and email it BOTH of those Jun 18 16:46:54 Tibfib, that's what I wanted to do Jun 18 16:50:59 phoque_uni: be sure to include the version you have Jun 18 16:57:22 bbl Jun 18 17:38:17 Tibfib, sent Jun 18 17:38:27 cool, thanks Jun 18 17:38:29 I'm looking forward to your answer :-) Jun 18 17:39:23 hey all Jun 18 18:43:17 * sugardave is looking at an app with Mojo, Enyo, and jQuery in it. Jun 18 18:43:19 blarg Jun 18 18:43:27 WHY?!?!?! Jun 18 18:43:43 HI ADORA I WAS JUST THINKING ABUT YOU Jun 18 18:43:49 about, too Jun 18 18:44:20 and Mojo brings in Prototype too Jun 18 18:44:24 sugardave: My next app is probably going to have Mojo, Enyo and jQuery Jun 18 18:44:35 singmajesty: WHY?!?!?! Jun 18 18:44:44 if you have a reason, that's fine Jun 18 18:44:47 [ Mojo + Prototype] and [ Enyo + jQuery ] Jun 18 18:44:52 fat packaging Jun 18 18:44:54 this app does 3 things in mojo Jun 18 18:45:06 The first combo is an application that runs on webOS 1.x and 2.x phones Jun 18 18:45:17 The second combo is an application that runs on webOS 3.x for the TouchPad Jun 18 18:45:28 sugardave: Wait, are they using Mojo in a TouchPad app? O_o Jun 18 18:45:31 much like multi architecture binary bundles :) Jun 18 18:45:39 sets this.controller.body to document.body, calls an external function (but pass an enyo method to it), and runs another external function Jun 18 18:45:44 all of this should not be here Jun 18 18:45:50 I wouldn't actually use both, simultaneously Jun 18 18:45:57 singmajesty: oh, they are :D Jun 18 18:46:06 no, definitely not :/ Jun 18 18:46:07 Popple3: yes Jun 18 18:46:13 D: Jun 18 18:46:14 Maybe they have a Mojo application that they're trying to "spice up" with Enyo? Jun 18 18:46:20 I guess that's fine, if it works Jun 18 18:46:25 no, I just got the response, they don't know what they're doing Jun 18 18:46:27 "if it works" being a key pivot point :) Jun 18 18:46:37 Ah, so they're probably confused by mixed messaging Jun 18 18:46:42 yes Jun 18 18:46:48 "How do I ... on webOS" Jun 18 18:46:55 so, jquery Jun 18 18:46:58 sucks? Jun 18 18:47:06 No, I like jQuery a lot better than Prototype Jun 18 18:47:07 or is it just being used in a bad way Jun 18 18:47:13 because this app is HORRENDOUSLY slow Jun 18 18:47:19 That's probably because of Mojo Jun 18 18:47:25 even when I take it out Jun 18 18:47:28 * rwatkins , not a big jquery fan. Jun 18 18:47:37 You also need to run jQuery in a noConflict mode if you want to use it next to Prototype Jun 18 18:47:42 it still takes forever to get actions done, switch to views, etc. Jun 18 18:47:56 singmajesty: no need, I just got them to agree to rip out out Mojo Jun 18 18:48:00 woo! Jun 18 18:48:22 yeah! lol Jun 18 18:48:30 singmajesty: is htat noConflict thing applicable to running it with OTHER frameworks? Jun 18 18:48:42 like, say [redacted]? :D Jun 18 18:48:56 Well, Prototype and jQuery both assign themselves to the dollar sign Jun 18 18:49:04 sugardave: hehe Jun 18 18:49:05 $("my-div").css ... Jun 18 18:49:29 right Jun 18 18:49:36 So if you load Mojo, then load jQuery, it will replace $ calls with jQuery instead of Prototype, and the world might explode on you Jun 18 18:49:44 that won't tromp on something like this.$, though? Jun 18 18:49:51 Umm Jun 18 18:49:53 Maybe not Jun 18 18:50:08 It's a global object, not a child property Jun 18 18:50:10 probably moot anyway, all they're using it for is rotation and app menu Jun 18 18:50:42 it's like they copied their whole site into this app and banged on it with code snippet hammers until it displayed Jun 18 18:50:58 Maybe they should be using PhoneGap instead of Mojo or Enyo? Jun 18 18:51:07 Yeah, that might be right :) Jun 18 18:51:24 well, the problem now is time Jun 18 18:51:37 if I was smart, I would have started re-writing it last night :P Jun 18 18:51:48 but nooooo, I decided to see if I could fix it instead Jun 18 18:51:49 Is this for ODD or something? Jun 18 18:51:58 I don't know what that is Jun 18 18:52:27 on-device demo Jun 18 18:53:41 see pm Jun 18 18:54:24 sugardave: is this an app you are working on? Jun 18 18:54:35 I am working on someone else's app, yes Jun 18 18:54:43 ah. cool Jun 18 19:10:57 anyone wanting to help me test an app, PM me Jun 18 19:12:04 arg windows Jun 18 19:12:10 lol Jun 18 19:12:32 PatrickC: Got a TouchPad? :P Jun 18 19:12:40 nope Jun 18 19:12:44 then no :P Jun 18 19:12:47 but it would be useful : Jun 18 19:13:03 I need help testing my app lol Jun 18 19:20:58 sugardave: want to be a alpha tester for one of my apps? Jun 18 19:27:21 nope Jun 18 19:27:28 got plenty to do thanks Jun 18 19:27:40 ok Jun 18 19:42:20 anyone? Jun 18 19:42:33 when i get my touchpad i will ;) Jun 18 19:43:38 hehe Jun 18 19:43:57 the touchpad would be nice, but this can be tested on all devices ;) Jun 18 19:44:12 probably not an android though eh? Jun 18 19:44:20 i'm webos deprived unfortunately Jun 18 19:45:29 its webos Jun 18 19:45:38 but it will be on android soon :) Jun 18 19:45:43 cool Jun 18 19:45:53 i'm trying to teach myself how to dev on webos Jun 18 19:47:24 PatrickC: Oh, a Pre 2 is enough to test your app? Fire the ipk in an email if you want so Jun 18 19:47:50 rotten777: It's really fun and easy :) Jun 18 19:47:56 step 1: sign up for early access /re rotten777 Jun 18 19:48:02 Popple3: see PM Jun 18 19:48:39 Popple3: I hope so I'm trying to find docs now to learn... I have 9 days of vacation to suck up some knowledge before I have to run my company again Jun 18 19:49:09 PatrickC: I've done that... still just trying to find resources and tutorials to get my feet wet... i'm running ubuntu 11.04 and virtualbox won't run the emulator... so Jun 18 19:49:16 rotten777: You can learn Mojo, but you're probably best off getting into early access Jun 18 19:49:51 rotten777: if you are in early access, then don't learn mojo Jun 18 19:50:24 PatrickC: i'm not familiar with the differences... I don't come from a heavy dev background although I've done C and PHP Jun 18 19:50:54 rotten: Enyo (new framework) is much easier then Mojo (old framework) Jun 18 19:51:50 PatrickC: any helpful url's for enyo or related information? I'm dying to learn Jun 18 19:52:01 watching the enyo dev day video right now... :) Jun 18 19:52:02 rotten777: request access to the Early Access Program through pdc@palm.com Jun 18 19:52:16 there is no public info for Enyo yet Jun 18 19:52:31 Enyo is NDA (Non-Disclosure) Jun 18 19:52:37 rgr Jun 18 19:52:57 PatrickC: *Non-Disclosure Agreement :P Jun 18 19:53:05 hehe Jun 18 19:54:24 ok well i e-mailed the pdc@palm.com .... here's hoping Jun 18 19:54:35 any other good sources to learn WebOS dev Jun 18 19:54:36 ? Jun 18 19:54:47 developer.palm.com Jun 18 19:54:51 precentral.net Jun 18 19:54:53 webos101.com has a bunch of Mojo stuff Jun 18 19:55:01 webos-internals.org Jun 18 19:55:50 bookmarked.. awesome! now i just need some hardware to dev on! Jun 18 19:56:34 :) Jun 18 20:02:55 anyone else? Jun 18 20:03:31 rotten777: Not sure if people mentioned there are two paths for development on webOS Jun 18 20:03:41 1.) web stack, 2.) native Linux stack Jun 18 20:03:58 I've never heard that Jun 18 20:04:00 ok didn't know that... Jun 18 20:04:02 The widget set is on the web side, if you use Enyo, but otherwise you can write a standard web application Jun 18 20:04:19 Otherwise you can write a standard C/C++ Linux application, on top of SDL Jun 18 20:04:29 oh ok Jun 18 20:04:32 PatrickC: web stack = Mojo/Enyo, native Linux stack = PDK Jun 18 20:04:37 So on the web side, there's PhoneGap, Mojo, Enyo, Sencha, jQuery Mobile, frameworkless HTML, etc. Jun 18 20:04:53 On the native Linux side there's C/C++, haXe, Airplay SDK, ShiVa 3D, etc Jun 18 20:05:04 I hear there's even someone who has Python working Jun 18 20:05:23 So those are the two main entry points, but as you can tell, there are still several options for each approach Jun 18 20:05:45 rotten777: I run a tutorial site ( http://simpletutorials.org ) that you can visit from time-to-time Jun 18 20:05:57 we'll have enyo and mojo tutorials up soon Jun 18 20:06:04 ok cool Jun 18 20:06:05 If you want a straightforward example of a C++ project for webOS, you can download one from here: Jun 18 20:06:06 http://www.joshuagranick.com/code/pdk/ Jun 18 20:06:19 The example compiles to the desktop for Mac, Windows or Linux, and also to the device Jun 18 20:06:28 if anyone wants to write a tutorial in *any* programming language, PM me Jun 18 20:07:19 so sdl experience is going to be real key? Jun 18 20:07:29 my site takes *all* programming languages that are still used today. no punch cards :) Jun 18 20:07:31 Everyone is different, and every application is different, so the approach or technology you use will vary Jun 18 20:07:50 SDL is simple to understand if you haven't used it before in C Jun 18 20:08:16 i haven't... is there a good reference book? Jun 18 20:08:33 It helps make applications portable, so the same code can run graphics and sounds on Windows, Mac, Linux, webOS ... without any platform specific code Jun 18 20:08:44 cool! Jun 18 20:08:45 ahh gotcha Jun 18 20:08:51 Here's the API: Jun 18 20:08:51 http://www.libsdl.org/docs/html/reference.html Jun 18 20:08:56 There might be better references Jun 18 20:09:13 ...but if you download the 01-Getting-Started.zip sample, that draws a red square using SDL Jun 18 20:09:20 the table of contents starts at 5 on that page lol Jun 18 20:09:23 It also includes a C++ class I wrote for a SDL event/render loop Jun 18 20:09:24 yeah i'm reading the source on that now Jun 18 20:09:42 02-Loading-Images.zip goes the next step to load an image and render using SDL Jun 18 20:09:57 You can use OpenGL ES on top of SDL if you want, as well Jun 18 20:10:04 singmajesty: you know C++ pretty good I imagine? Jun 18 20:10:14 I was going to do a tutorial series, but there didn't seem to be interest Jun 18 20:10:25 Most C developers I've met want a simple build example Jun 18 20:10:28 you can do it for my site if you want Jun 18 20:10:40 s/it/a tutorial/ Jun 18 20:10:53 PatrickC: Are you using a CMS for that site, or is it straight HTML? Jun 18 20:11:05 HTML/CSS Jun 18 20:11:22 and CMS would be? lol Jun 18 20:11:25 never heard of that Jun 18 20:11:28 Oh, content management system Jun 18 20:11:37 Like http://www.concrete5.org Jun 18 20:11:37 nope. its all hand written Jun 18 20:12:24 if you would like to do any of the C languages in a tutorial, please PM me :) Jun 18 20:13:03 I primarily used haXe for my games on webOS (supports Flash-like programming, translated to C++ internally) Jun 18 20:13:12 * PatrickC needs a good C/C++/C#/Obj. C tutorial anyway :) Jun 18 20:13:26 is haXe a good language? Jun 18 20:13:27 I used Mojo for my previous web applications, but I'm probably going to use haXe with Enyo for my next web app Jun 18 20:13:42 It's like Actionscript, or similar to Javascript or Java Jun 18 20:14:11 One of the cool things about it is that the compiler can turn your code into another language Jun 18 20:14:26 haXe -> PHP, JS, C++, Actionscript Jun 18 20:14:45 So I wrote my games, compiled for Flash, compiled for C++ for webOS Jun 18 20:14:56 could you write a tutorial for it? :) Jun 18 20:15:14 I'm working on "externs" for Enyo, so I can write an Enyo application with code completion, inline documentation, compile-time error checking, etc. Jun 18 20:15:41 I want my site to be the *1 stop* place for *all* your coding tutorial needs :) Jun 18 20:16:12 so, I'll take *any*, and I mean any, language someone is willing to write a tutorial for :) Jun 18 20:16:47 You might consider using a content management system, because that makes it really easy to add additional users, give them editing rights for parts of the site, generate new pages using the same site style, etc. Jun 18 20:17:10 I have an add-on for Concrete5 that lets me add WordPress blog entries as a block of content I can stick anywhere I want Jun 18 20:17:27 (Drag-and-drop WYSIWYG editing in the browser, etc) Jun 18 20:17:54 Would be easy to drop in a tutorial pulled straight off my blog or some other source Jun 18 20:18:10 hmm.. sounds nice Jun 18 20:18:15 ...or to let people contribute without headaches Jun 18 20:18:16 I'll look into it thanks! Jun 18 20:18:24 You can also set it up so that edits require administrator approval Jun 18 20:18:39 its free? Jun 18 20:18:40 So people could submit content, while still giving you the ability to filter it if you wanted to Jun 18 20:18:41 Yeah Jun 18 20:18:45 Oh, and making a theme is easy Jun 18 20:18:54 Basically straight HTML, then a couple PHP snippets Jun 18 20:19:02 I don't know PHP yet Jun 18 20:19:13 and thanks!! Jun 18 20:19:27 we'll be in touch :) Jun 18 20:20:18 enyo concept mail client in dev day video is slick Jun 18 20:20:45 PatrickC: Yeah, if you already have an HTML theme ready, and are interested in using it with something like Concrete, let me know and I can probably help Jun 18 20:20:53 PatrickC: Just email me at joshua.granick@palm.com Jun 18 20:20:57 thanks! Jun 18 20:21:08 rotten777: Yeah, it's one of my favorite apps on the TouchPad! Jun 18 20:21:27 It's given me a lot of good ideas when thinking about my own applications, designed for a tablet Jun 18 20:21:34 Oh, one last thing... Jun 18 20:21:47 You can mix the web stuff with the native stuff... Jun 18 20:21:55 yeeah Jun 18 20:22:05 you have a touchpad already? Jun 18 20:22:27 It doesn't render as quickly, but you can drop C++ into an Enyo application just like an , like Flash Jun 18 20:22:41 that's real slick Jun 18 20:22:52 I am a Palm employee. I'm in developer relations for the PDK -- the C++ stuff. Jun 18 20:23:05 oh ha that makes sense then Jun 18 20:23:05 singmajesty: I take it you work for palm? Jun 18 20:23:14 very cool Jun 18 20:23:21 ...but I've done a lot of work with HTML/JS/CSS/PHP in the past, so I'm familiar with both Jun 18 20:23:37 Yeah, I can test Enyo and web stuff in a browser or the emulator Jun 18 20:23:39 singmajesty: want to be a beta tester for my app? Jun 18 20:23:51 ...but it is harder to troubleshoot and test C++ applications without a device sometimes. That's why I have one Jun 18 20:24:00 PatrickC: What's your app? Jun 18 20:24:10 yeah well i can't wait to get a touchpad to get writing apps... my head is full of ideas! now i just need to get my dev juju going Jun 18 20:24:14 My wife loves it :) Jun 18 20:24:19 1 second, I'll PM you what it does Jun 18 20:24:28 Well if you have any questions, feel free to email me too! Jun 18 20:24:30 one of my companies needs some pretty strange stuff Jun 18 20:27:11 whew.. I just got my hosting account suspended Jun 18 20:27:19 but fixed Jun 18 20:29:31 That reminds me... Jun 18 20:29:43 I think my domain names are about to expire... (have to take care of that) Jun 18 20:30:13 i'm stoked. if i can get a grip on the dev for this, this is going to be huge. here's hoping july 1 brings me a touchpad tab Jun 18 20:30:31 If you want to go with C++, it's easier than iOS and much easier than Android Jun 18 20:30:43 yeah i've done C and derivatives before Jun 18 20:30:52 If you want to go with web, I still feel, personally, that it's a good experience Jun 18 20:31:10 never this high level but always functional and i've had great results Jun 18 20:31:26 but now with the two companies i run i have a situation in which this could change the game Jun 18 20:31:29 in a great way Jun 18 20:32:29 singmajesty: Concrete5 is a one-click-install for my from my hosting provider :) Jun 18 20:33:51 sing any idea on the market costs for devs? Jun 18 20:34:25 ahh nevermind i just found the page... Jun 18 20:35:26 hy there.I want to develop a plugin for the "presentation mode" of WebOS 2.x. Does anyone know if it is possible with the Mojo Framework (JS/CSS/HTML) or do I need to use the PDK? Jun 18 20:35:29 It's currently a 70/30 split on revenue, and there's a lot of interest in the TouchPad, so it is easy to rise to the top if you have a great app Jun 18 20:35:54 No costs for becoming a developer or submitting an app. Submitting a new app usually takes around a week, and submitting updates usually take around 2 days Jun 18 20:36:21 nice Jun 18 20:36:30 newToWebOs: You can definitely use Exhibition Mode from Mojo or Enyo Jun 18 20:37:09 newToWebOs: https://developer.palm.com/content/api/dev-guide/mojo/exhibition.html Jun 18 20:37:35 Okay guys, I've got to go Jun 18 20:37:42 PatrickC, rotten777, nice meeting you Jun 18 20:37:49 cya Jun 18 20:37:57 Feel free to email me if you have more questions or just want to share something cool you're testing out ;) Jun 18 20:38:17 thanks for the help! Jun 18 20:38:59 Have a great day! Jun 18 20:39:07 singmajesty: Thank you for the hint! Jun 18 21:11:11 grr... Jun 18 21:11:21 * PatrickC wishes he had access to a PC right now :/ Jun 18 21:12:19 whyfore? Jun 18 21:12:32 * rotten777 wishes he had access to a touchpad right now :\ Jun 18 21:13:32 summatumentis: I want to fix up my site.. but I'm on the pre2 right now.. Jun 18 21:13:55 vim and terminus dude Jun 18 21:13:56 :) Jun 18 21:14:00 heh Jun 18 21:14:14 x10 doesn't offer vim free :) Jun 18 21:14:40 and I would have to use XTerm, pre2 :) Jun 18 21:14:46 or did they fix terminus? Jun 18 21:15:32 you can fix terminus, just remove one of the lines in the jail file Jun 18 21:16:40 ah Jun 18 21:16:50 can you copy/paste in terminus? Jun 18 21:16:59 no idea Jun 18 21:17:03 I don't do that Jun 18 21:18:15 wht protocol does citrix receiver use? its own? Jun 18 21:18:34 network protocol? Jun 18 21:18:53 well, let's say, is it RDP compatible? Jun 18 21:20:00 per this : http://support.citrix.com/servlet/KbServlet/download/2389-102-654859/CitrixPorts_by_Port_1103.pdf ... it does use 3389 so i think so Jun 18 21:20:45 hm, that'd be handy Jun 18 21:20:46 I'm sure it's partially proprietary Jun 18 21:21:01 oh definitely yes Jun 18 21:21:11 it would be nice to just be able to use it straight up with a windows remote desktop Jun 18 21:21:23 I'm 99% sure that's not possible Jun 18 21:21:27 figures Jun 18 21:21:37 you want a terminal services client is that what you want? Jun 18 21:21:42 that's how copmanies do things Jun 18 21:21:51 i dont know what "terminal services client" is exactly Jun 18 21:21:57 i just want RDP to work on the touchpad :-) Jun 18 21:22:14 into a microsoft os? Jun 18 21:22:17 RDP is probably do-able Jun 18 21:22:19 from your touchpad Jun 18 21:22:21 or, possible Jun 18 21:22:30 rotten777: yeah that's the idea Jun 18 21:22:31 oh i'm sure it is, if it hasn't been made yet Jun 18 21:22:34 rotten777: i do from my linux desktop Jun 18 21:22:46 cxreg: yes that's a terminal services client or a remote desktop client Jun 18 21:22:52 ok right, then that Jun 18 21:22:57 touchpad is linux, you could probably figure out how to do it Jun 18 21:23:03 i don't have a touchpad yet so i can't say 100% but if it isn't made yet, i'm sure it will be Jun 18 21:23:09 summatusmentis: well right, i know that Jun 18 21:23:44 if nothing works at launch, ill poke around with it Jun 18 21:24:20 http://tsclient.sourceforge.net/ Jun 18 21:25:11 i've used that with it before, stopped in favor of just using a static forward Jun 18 21:25:15 oh wait Jun 18 21:25:26 got the name mixed up Jun 18 21:26:03 i'm sure with the open source push with webos, it'll be there for the touchpad pretty quick ;) Jun 18 21:26:24 oh yeah right, tsclient is just a front-end to rdesktop which is what im using Jun 18 21:27:32 you know, the pad is beefy enough that running a rootless X is probably a reasonable thing to do Jun 18 21:27:40 that makes it trivial Jun 18 21:27:51 yessir Jun 18 21:28:41 rotten777: dualboot 10.10 to run vbox? Jun 18 21:29:08 PatrickC: running on an 80gb ssd so no thanks ;) Jun 18 21:29:15 ah Jun 18 21:29:22 i was thinking about not getting one right at launch, but then what kind of fanboy would i be Jun 18 21:29:35 I'm not getting one at launch< I don't have the cash now Jun 18 21:29:41 but I'll get one as soon as I do Jun 18 21:29:51 i've got an empty credit card staring me in the face Jun 18 21:29:52 lol Jun 18 21:30:03 summatusmentis: same here Jun 18 21:30:19 cxreg: wanna share that card? :) Jun 18 21:30:22 i'm getting one at launch. it's a company expense and will be NET free after taxes :) Jun 18 21:30:22 no credit cards for me Jun 18 21:30:24 heh :) Jun 18 21:30:45 rotten777: nice Jun 18 21:31:09 Adora! when do we get dev pricing on the touchpad???? Jun 18 21:31:16 I don't have a company to have a company expenses :) Jun 18 21:31:27 PatrickC: actually, yeah, I'm planning on that too Jun 18 21:31:27 sammatusmentis: sucker! ;) Jun 18 21:31:30 * PatrickC is his company :P Jun 18 21:31:48 rotten777: yeh, grad students don't get to have companies :-D Jun 18 21:31:57 chuqui can answer too :) Jun 18 21:32:07 students don't have companies haha Jun 18 21:32:14 * PatrickC is 10th grade Jun 18 21:32:27 PatrickC: stay tuned Jun 18 21:32:34 thanks..... lol Jun 18 21:32:45 lemme guess.. "in the coming months" ? :) Jun 18 21:32:59 there's dev pricing? i don't have to wait to get the touchpad if i want dev pricing do i? :X Jun 18 21:33:00 how do you qualify for dev pricing? Jun 18 21:33:24 cxreg: generally you're signed up for the dev program Jun 18 21:33:24 well, first they have to start the dev pricing program :) Jun 18 21:33:30 or, that's how it's been in the past Jun 18 21:33:33 then details flow out Jun 18 21:33:38 summatusmentis: well, I'm that. i'm just not good at actually, you know, publishing :( Jun 18 21:33:52 same here dude Jun 18 21:34:01 cxreg: get a developer account, and use Ares Jun 18 21:34:37 but, at least that from what I've seen, there's nothing that's contingent on having an app published... you just have to ask for a coupon (as I understand it) Jun 18 21:34:53 ^^ iirc that's it Jun 18 21:35:24 cxreg: what language(s) do you know? Jun 18 21:35:27 programming wise Jun 18 21:35:42 but I've never done it, so, you know Jun 18 21:36:00 I've only gotten them through the free device program Jun 18 21:37:34 PatrickC: Perl, C, javascript, *mumble mumble* Jun 18 21:37:52 i "know" about a dozen others Jun 18 21:37:55 then you should be able to code relatively easily :) Jun 18 21:37:57 yeah Jun 18 21:37:59 i know Jun 18 21:38:01 i'm lazy Jun 18 21:38:04 hehe Jun 18 21:38:23 you need to get early access Jun 18 21:38:27 i have that too Jun 18 21:38:29 you would have fun with Enyo :) Jun 18 21:38:54 i played a bit, and couldnt figure out how to make certain bits of the ui work Jun 18 21:39:02 summatusmentis: what language(s) do you know? Jun 18 21:39:21 lately, the things i *do* publish have a bit of a "huh? why?" factor Jun 18 21:39:37 lol Jun 18 21:39:38 like, for example, a bash library that sets your environment variables when you cd Jun 18 21:39:42 what have you published? Jun 18 21:40:03 not for webos, just a thing on github Jun 18 21:40:16 ah Jun 18 21:40:50 PatrickC: C/Java primarily Jun 18 21:41:04 you can dev for webos in C Jun 18 21:41:10 basic HTML/CSS, basic python Jun 18 21:41:22 I know all that, I've been trying to teach myself JS Jun 18 21:41:28 that thing is https://github.com/cxreg/smartcd if you're curious Jun 18 21:41:48 i've spent way too many 'tuits on it in the last few weeks Jun 18 21:42:36 making real apps could produce incoming, you'd think that would motivate me Jun 18 21:42:40 er, income Jun 18 21:43:10 I just haven't had time to finish the app I want to write Jun 18 21:44:57 cxreg: haha Jun 18 21:45:04 summatusmentis: what's the app?

Jun 18 23:12:03 "I want the hd's and the bg's and the wifi's" Jun 18 23:12:11 gee 'print' is suddently a feature of the new HP webOS devices everywhere. :) Jun 18 23:12:15 I have the original (Mojo) version Jun 18 23:12:21 developer kickback for adding htat?

I can't seem to use luna-send with novaterm Jun 19 00:06:27 uhoh Jun 19 00:06:45 Tibfib: What are you trying to do? Jun 19 00:06:50 luna-send with novaterm Jun 19 00:06:55 hah. I want to simulate an sms Jun 19 00:07:59 Tibfib: You don't run luna-send on the device do you? O_o I would've thought you'd do it on your computer to target your device Jun 19 00:08:34 oh wait, emulator, not device Jun 19 00:08:37 "You can send radio events to the emulator by using the luna-send command from within a novaterm or ssh session." Jun 19 00:08:56 I wonder if 2.1 is not supported Jun 19 00:09:08 I stand corrected Jun 19 00:09:37 Why would you need to simulate them anyway? O.o Jun 19 00:09:56 I'm thinking about making a patch for sms dashboards Jun 19 00:09:56 * Popple3 is probably just being stupid Jun 19 00:10:01 ah, ok Jun 19 00:10:12 Tibfib: What's the idea?
