Use SSH (and AWS, or something). I agree on the big screen.
(I checked the iPad SSH clients this spring, they seemed to be able to handle vim but not Emacs. Time to check again, I guess. WTF -- terminal emulators that don't let much of key codes for control etc through!?)
- zxoq 14y agoApple does not provide any API for getting the state of the modifier keys on iOS. I really think this is something they need to loosen up about if they want people to go into the post-PC. We get the point Apple, you want users to be able to do everything an app offers without accessories. But that's orthogonal to replacing your PC with an iPad. (Especially since the private APIs are already there, they just need to allow them)
- berntb 14y agoThanks for information. I should have checked the APIs myself, but I couldn't dream the problem was that full keyboard state information didn't get through to apps. I guess it serves me right for using/loving a closed platform... :-( :-)
