I too have a few custom config files and find them useful, but they don't do everything, and it still feels a bit clunky. A spin off question related to this: Is it really appropriate to show config.cfg along with the other config files? I've been experimenting with my prototype new quickscreen only for a couple of days. The single most useful thing is the quick,, no fuss access to clock time. That doesn't correspond to a setting, and not really to a menu either. Quick access to volume is nice, when you had full amplification in the car and are switching to earphones, and that's a case where you'd like access to the entire range for the setting, but admitedly that's just nice to have. Temporarily suppressing .talk clips could be achieved through settings. > 3) make it a fully customizable menu Since we can already parse setting names from a config file, it would perhaps not take much more to be able to bring up the option_screen for a setting by name. That might be interesting. But configurability for any menu: I'm not convinced it's worth the trouble. And even that wouldn't do everything (like just saying the time). One possible catch is that some submenus may depend on actions taken by higher-level menus, like going to low latency in the sound settings menu. -- Stéphane Doyon <s.doyon_at_videotron.ca> http://pages.videotron.com/sdoyon/Received on 2007-10-08 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
