The problem I have with the blackberry keyboards is the omission of commonly used linux symbols such as tilde - how do you cope with that? Or perhaps I am missing a trick? I've resorted to salvaging Psion 5 keyboards and rolling my own hardware as the result.
- zenkalia 3y agoI don't need a tilde but I could add one in about 5 minutes if needed. It would be something like this: https://github.com/zenkalia/T-keyboard/blob/bleeding_edge/example/BLE_keybord/BLE_keybord.ino#L199-L201 https://github.com/zenkalia/T-keyboard/blob/bleeding_edge/ex... except it would add a ~ rather than trigger an arrow key. I'd likely put it on sym+q so that it is in a similar space to a real keyboard. I was discussing special characters with someone on github. If the character isn't in the font you'll have to do some extra work that I summarized in this comment: https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-keyboard/issues/10#issuecomment-1890852775 https://github.com/Xinyuan-LilyGO/T-keyboard/issues/10#issue... In the comment above it the mapping table that I'm talking about is this one: https://github.com/zenkalia/T-keyboard/blob/bleeding_edge/example/BLE_keybord/BLE_keybord.ino#L97-L135 https://github.com/zenkalia/T-keyboard/blob/bleeding_edge/ex... .
