Works great on my P4300 (Wizard) with WM6.1 The only thing it is missing is support for storage cards. I can select where I save the files, but all options are on the device. I am a Linux user so this requires an extra step to copy them to the SD card so I can mount it and pull them off. Other than that, it is a great app!
Looks great, but do I need to extract this zip file from a PC? When I try & unzip it from my Tilt (using Resco File Explore '07) it says "Nothing to extract. Selection does not contain any files".
Thanks.

I used built-in compression in Vista to create the zip so maybe that is the problem. You can unzip on the PC and copy to your Tilt.
Thanks for trying it.

Thanks for giving it a try. I am working on adding the storage cards to the folder browse. Coming soon. I will update the first post when I have a new version.
anything for smartphones?
Very nice - great job!
@ oldsap
I cannot use a listbox on smartphones so not sure how I would implement the task list option. However, I would be glad to do a smartphone version if there is enough people that would use it.
@ Moe5508
Thanks for the kind words.
@ All
I'll have a new version next week that includes Storage cards for the Save folder. In the meantime, note that the box that has the Save folder is open to typing also. You can type a path there without using the browse feature. That should be a temporary fix to allow you to save your captures anywhere on the device.

Post #1 is updated with a new version that supports Storage Cards. I had to do this by brute force. My library woudl only return network folders so to get a storage card to appear in the folder browse it must have a name that starts with Storage Card. That should be the default anyway.
Hope it works for you.
Just tested it out and it works GREAT!! Thanks again for a wonderful app!!

Help and faq
HELP / FAQ / TROUBLESHOOTING
Read this whole text before using the FingerKeyboard or asking for help! If your question is already answered in FAQ it will be ignored. Don't be lazy!
What version should I install on my XYZ device? / What is WVGA, WQVGA, VGA and QVGA?
To successfully install Fingerkeyboard on your device, you need to pick the correct version for your phone. For example, let's say you want to find out what resolution Samsung Omnia has. Type "Samsung Omnia review" into Google, and among the first few results usually you'll get the most popular review sites listed. Reviews always contain resolution information, so we easily find out that Samsung Omnia has a 400x240 pixels resolution. That means you should install FingerKeyboard WQVGA cab.
Here's the list of supported resolutions for FingerKeyboard, with their standard abbreviations:
WVGA - 800x480
WQVGA - 400x240
VGA - 640x480
QVGA - 320x240
Why does FingerKeyboard look differently on my device then on the screenshots?
There can be some small differences between the screenshots and what you see on your screen. The reason for this is that different layouts can have different features, graphic elements or button layouts. We consider English layout to be the "standard" layout, with best combination of button size and positions.
How can I type those special characters that appear above normal characters?
Press and hold a key.
How to switch to full CAPS?
Press and hold the shift button.
Spacebar
If you press and hold spacebar button it will write a dot followed by a space.
How to use text selection?
Switch to full CAPS mode and then use arrow buttons to select text.
How to use cut / copy / paste / undo?
Switch to full CAPS mode, select the text you want to cut or copy, and press and hold ^c or ^x characters. Then press and hold ^v to paste. On some layouts these are named "cut", "copy" and "pst". Same thing with "undo" option - you can use "undo" at any moment, and it will take you back for unlimited number of steps.
Where is that Config tool you mention?
After you install FingerKeyboard, go to Start > Programs > Finger Keyboard.
How can I switch to numeric keyboard?
Press 123 button. If your layout does not have dedicated 123 button, press Shift and 123 will appear on your Language toggle button. Behavior of Language toggle button can be customized in Configuration tool.
How can I change a color scheme of the keyboard?
Config tool > Main > Color scheme: select which ever you like and press OK or Apply.
How can I select language layouts?
Config tool > Main: you will see a list of all language layouts you have in your FingerKeyboard folder. Put a tick next to the layouts you want to use and press OK or Apply. We also advise you to physically delete layouts you don't want to use from oyur device (Program files / FingerKeyb / Skins). This will make Config tool start up a little bit faster and use less memory.
What are all those Backspace options in Config tool?
Behavior of Backspace key can be customized to suit your needs. You can separately control what will Backspace do on short click and long press, as well as how it will behave in small caps or caps lock mode.
How to minimize or turn off the keyboard?
Short press the keyboard toggle button (the one with small keyboard or switch sign on it). Long press on this button will turn off FingerKeyboard and switch to default HTC keyboard.
How to disable click sound?
Run FingerKeyboard Config tool. Under "Options" tab you will find a "Press sound" box. Here you can select from several different click sounds, all of which have "quiet" and "loud" versions. This is useful if you want a subtle click sound, but don't want to lower the volume for the whole System. There is also a "no sound option".
How can I get vibration feedback?
Config tool > Options tab > Press vibrate. Here you can select how long you want the vibration feedback to last. Minimum of 20ms will get you a barely noticeable vibration effect, while 80ms will be very strong.
Vibration feedback don't work on my device. Why is this?
If you're having problems with vibration feedback, it's most likely that our autodetect LED vibration feature don't work well on your device. However, you can play around with "VibrateLed 1" string in skin-01-global.txt (Program Files\FingerKeyb\Skins) and see if perhaps changing to another LED number will work for you.
How can I control the key-press delay? / What is "Hold time" / Can I make the keys repeat on press+hold?
"Hold time" option in Config tool is a cool option you can use to control how long it will be needed for a key to be continuously pressed before it writes a letter or performs an action. This part of the "Hold time" function is controlled with numbers in the first box. The second box controls how long will it take for a key to be continuously pressed before it starts repeating itself. So, if you put 500ms in the first box, and 200ms in the second box, that means you will have to press a key for 500ms before it performs it's "long press" action, and 200ms more before it starts repeating that function. If you hold the key even longer, it will then gradually accelerate.
Can I hide / show Windows menu bars?
Yes, go to Config tool and under "Options" tab select how you want the keyboard to display in Portrait and Landscape mode. We suggest selecting "Show bar" for portrait, and "Hide bar" for landscape.
I want the pop-up images to stay longer on screen. How can I do this?
In Config tool, Options tab, there is a "Popup time" box. Here you can select how long will the pop-up image stay on screen after a key has been pressed. If you set pop-up time to 1500ms, this means the pop-up image will stay on screen for 1.5 seconds, or until next key is pressed. Pop-up image delay affects ONLY the normal character keys (A,B,C,D etc). Special action keys, such as Shift, Space, Backspace etc. have default short time and will not stay on your screen. This is done to avoid action keys images covering large areas of the screen with their larger pop-up images.
What are Smiles / Shortcuts?
This is a feature that no other keyboard has. It allows you to control what any of the several predefined actions keys will do when you press and hold them. Almost all layouts have these special actions included (between 7 and 11 actions on most of the layouts). You can control what will show up on a key when you open the keyboard, as well as what that key will write when you press+hold it. For example, you can type into "Key text" box "info" and into "Action text" you could type "John Smith, gsm:00123456789, e-mail: [email protected]". Or maybe your favorite web address. Or your signature. Or your wife's name. Or your lover's name for all we care The possibilities are endless! You can do the same thing for smiles - if you don't like the default ones, use your own, or something else!
A special key I need is missing / Can I customize smiles / Can I change shortcuts?
If there's a key missing in your language layout, you can easily add it yourself by using either Smiles or Shortcuts tab in Config tool. Simply type the missing key into two of the horizontal boxes and the key will appear when you long press a button that has that Smiles / Shortcut action.
Why does XYZ language layout have only a few smiles / shortcuts buttons?
Some language layouts have very high demands regarding the number of characters they need to occupy. Because of this there are a few language layouts that may have a smaller number of smiles / shortcuts spaces reserved. We have tried to include as many as possible, believe us!
How can I make FingerKeyboard a default keyboard? / How can I keep FingerKeyboard as default keyboard even after reset?
You can use a small program called SIP Change. Look it up on XDA-developers.com forum, and remember to set delay to 40-50 seconds.
"Where is XYZ language layout? Why is it not included!?"
If you want a certain language layout, first check FingerKeyboard2.1 thread on XDA-developers.com forum if someone maybe already made an additional layout and posted it there. If not, the best thing you can do is to make your own layout and share it with other people. If your layout is good, we'll probably include it in next version. Please do not spam us with "I WANT THIS LANGUAGE!!!" messages. All language layouts depend exclusively on the community to produce them. If no one can't be bothered to make your language layout, we can't really help you.
Editing instructions:
You can use the existing layouts to make it custom layouts! The easiest way is to open one of the layout skin txt files and replace the existing characters with your own. Experiment a bit, and you will soon get the hang of it. Same applies if you want to make your own skin - edit the included bitmaps, and change the appropriate lines in txt files. Everything you want to know about FingerKeyboard actions, layouts, colors and resolutions is explained in "doc-about-skin.txt" that is located in the root of the FingerKeyb folder. Read it first before asking for help!
XT9 and Word suggestion
XT9 & TEXT SUGGESTION:
This keyboard does not support T9. However, there is an option to enable standard Windows Mobile word suggestion, as well as SMS contact name suggestion. There are two ways to do this.
First way is to use the FingerKeyboard Config tool and select what you want to use (Word / SMS suggestion, or both). SMS suggestions will work normally, but for WinMo word suggestion to function, you will need to switch to HTC default keyboard and manually turn on XT9 on the little T9 switch. After that, you can reload FingerKeyboard and everything will work normally. This can be a good way for people who like to use T9 on other keyboards, but also want to use FingerKeyboard without T9. This approach also makes it possible to use new HTC style suggestion windows (the ones with small arrows on each side, where you can flip between names / words).
To avoid messing around with XT9 switch on HTC keyboard you can simply globally disable XT9 across the whole system. That means that T9 will not work even on system keyboards that have T9 support, but SMS / Word suggestions will both work. This will disable the HTC style suggestion windows, and use the default WinMo style (opens a simple white window with list of suggested words or names). The patch file which disables XT9 globally is attached in this post. This patch can be uninstalled. If you already have it installed, you do not have to remove it or reinstall it. Also, please note that when you install this patch, you will not be able to select SMS /Word options in FingerKeyb config tool - they will always be grayed out.
It might be best to install the FingerKeyb cab and test it first. You can always globally disable XT9 later on if you decide so.
There is a known bug with Word suggestion, that has been almost fully fixed in this version of FingerKeyboard. The bug manifests itself like this:
- if you have "Text word suggestion" turned on, and you type an SMS message, the "home" and "end" buttons will not work while the word suggestion window is open on the screen. If you select a word, those keys will work normally. Unfortunately, this isn't our fault - it's actually a bug in Word suggestion app.
Bug tracker
BUG TRACKER for v2.1
This space is reserved for bug tracking.
Even though the latest version of FingerKeyboard2 has been tested on multiple devices with different ROM-s for more then 20 days, it's very likely that we missed some bugs.
When reporting bugs, please try to be as detailed as possible. The more information you supply, the easier it will be to find the bug and squash it. And we like squashing bugs! Some bugs with previous versions of FingerKeyboard were caused by 3rd party software. The usual suspects are other 3rd party keyboards.
DEBUG LOGGER! PLEASE USE IT IF YOU HAVE PROBLEMS!
Attached below, you will find Fingerkeyb_debug.dll file. This file will create a debug log which you can then send to us, so we can detect problems and try to fix them in the next release. It is mostly aimed at solving the problem that some people have with landscape mode, but it can be used to track any other problems as well. Debug logger is not that painless to use, but if you really want our help, this is the best way for us to detect what the problem is.
To start using this, you will need Resco Explorer or Total Commander CE.
Go into FingerKeyb folder (Program Files).
1. rename Fingerkeyb.dll to something else (example: Fingerkeyb_.dll)
2. Copy FingerKeybd_debug.dll to Program Files/FingerKeyb directory.
3. Rename FingerKeyb_debug.dll to FingerKeyb.dll
4. Softreset the phone
5. Open the FingerKeyboard, press 1-10 random keys on keyboard.
6. Minimize the keyboard, rotate the phone and open the keyboard again, after the phone is in landscape mode. Try to press 1-10 random keys again.
7. If you encounter the landscape bug, switch to HTC keyboard, making sure that it shows in landscape correctly.
8. Copy the FingerKeyb.log in working directory to a different folder on your device or PC and after that select FingerKeyboard again.
9. You will now have 2 log files. Rename them so they don't have the same file name and send them to Rozenthal or Exidler.
If you do not have Resco File Explorer or Total Commander CE, you can try this procedure:
0. Unregister keyboard using the old Fingerkeyb_register.exe (found in v1.4 thread) and then softreset
1. same as above
2. same as above
3. same as above
4. Register keyboard with the Fingerkeyb_register.exe
5. same as above
6. same as above
7. same as above
8. same as above
9. same as above
The logging tool will seem very slow, that's normal - it needs to write a bunch of info on every keypress, so take it easy. After you're done, you can simply reverse the procedure: remove the debug.dll, rename back the original Fingerkeyb.dll, and continue using the keyboard normally.
The log files can be sent to us via private messages here on XDA. Also, please do not expect to instantly receive a magical solution for your problem. If a simple solution exists, we will message you on how to apply it. If it's an issue that requires changing FingerKeyboard core files, it's more likely that the issue will be fixed in future versions of the software.

Path to .dll can be different.
In registry is saved only which skin files need to load and
which layout was last for each process.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FingerKeyb]
list of exe names and which layout must be restored for this process.
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FingerKeyb\SkinFiles]
list of skin files names in _lowercase_

Skin files that do not exists in this key will be loaded by keyboard automatically.
Skins directory is relative to place of keyboard DLL.

Media kit
Media kit for media / press / bloggers
If you are a representative of the media, and wish to cover FingerKeyboard2 in your magazine, portal or blog, below you will find a ZIP-ed media kit.
Inside it is a short text about FingerKeyboard v2.1, several full size screenshots, high-quality FingerKeyboard logo as well as some other graphics that can be used in publications of any kind.
If you have any additional questions, you will find the needed contacts within the info-text.
We would also kindly ask you to inform us when you publish your cover on FingerKeyboard.
Very nice, is there a skins thread/section yet though? O_O
Hi, thanks.
I dunno if it's because everyone likes the default color schemes (there is a lot of them included), but very few people actually played with graphics for FKBD so far.
And those that did were mostly making small changes here and there, no big overhauls.

It is available for VGA Giannis edition, but not for the utak3r QVGA.
However, we will make a QVGA version that will be just the same as WVGA / VGA with all language layouts included. Hang on for a day or so, and it will be posted!
p.s. Thank you!

Check Program Files\FingerKeyb\Skins - everything is in simple TXT files.
If you want to cook this into your ROM, we would kindly request that you first contact us and tell us what are you working on.
We will grant all requests for ROM inclusion, we just want to know where and how is the keyboard being used.
Whoa, i didn't notice that you have a thread in dev&hacking - i was about to suggest creating it instead of staying hidden in the blackstone section
Maybe it would be a good idea to lock the old one to keep the discussion in one place?
I am having trouble with the Giannis86 VGA cab. It wont install on my touch pro. I get an unsuccessful installation message.

** version 5.3 available now! **
I originally posted this application in the Blackstone forum but having since modified it to support most resolutions I decided to post it in a more general location. Here is the original thread.
What does it do? It allows you to create, save and manage shopping lists on your mobile device. You can create them on the fly and save them for future use, or you can create a master shopping list with common items that can be put into a new shopping list for whatever adventure you set forth on.
It also includes a Windows (PC) based utility for those "power" users who like to manage large, multi-tab lists. It simplifies typing up large lists of items and it also transfers them directly to your device if it is connected.
Information:
You no longer need to uninstall previous version(s) before installing the latest version!
If you have AppToDate you can use that to update the application to the latest version!
This requires .NET compact flash 3.5!
This supports Windows Mobile 6, 6.1 and 6.5.
Supported resolutions are 240x320, 320x320, 240x400, 480x640 and 480x800 in both portrait and landscape modes.
Downloads are in post 2 or you can use AppToDate to update it.
If you create your own language files please upload them to this thread so I can include them with the application!
Upcoming:
Add language support for configuration utility and save/open/browse dialogs. Currently only the main application supports alternate languages.
Possibly adding price information option per item (this would toggle-able by a setting).
Possibly adding finger gesture recognition for different things.
Possibly adding SMS support.
Possibly adding Today plugin.
Possibly add D-pad support.
Version 5.3:
New features:
Shopping Cart Companion - You can use this tiny application to easily create and manage lists (both standard and master lists) from your PC and transfer them directly to your device.
Fixes:
Optimized code greatly for larger lists. Opening a large list, e.g. 40 items per tab over 3 tabs opens in 5 seconds instead of 30. This has a huge impact on older / slower devices.
Version 5.2:
New features:
Shopping lists now have the typical elastic rebound effect when a list is scrolled beyond the beginning or end of a list.
Fixes:
The position of a shopping list no longer automatically scrolls to the top of the list if you click an entry that is below the "first page" of the list.
Version 5.1:
New features:
Save As menu option for new lists.
New setting to save a new list automatically.
New option under Settings/General/SIP. Show automatically when entering: Enabled, Enabled in Portrait Only, Disabled.
Fixes:
Exporting all marked items of a master list to a regular list doesn't work when using "mark all items".
Exiting from the master list without saving or anything says that the user tried to save the masterlist as a regular list.
Various errors with save dialogs not appearing and files not being saved.
Version 5.0:
NOTE: You will have to uninstall the previous version because of the name change! Otherwise you will have both applications installed!
New features:
Landscape for all supported resolutions. This is currently only within the main application screen, not the settings screen, save/open screens, etc.
New initial GUI upon start of application (enabled or disabled by a setting)- a "home" screen with more intuitive quick-launch buttons to access application features.
New option on long-press-hold over an item - copy item text to input field.
Language files included have been updated with the new entry above and need to be translated. When you do, please upload them to this thread.
A new setting to prompt a user to overwrite an existing saved cart rather than just doing it.
Application will be renamed to "Digicast Solutions' Shopping Cart" from "cRaCKwHoRe's Shopping Cart"
Fixes:
Intermittent application errors / crashes when deleting / duplicating items / opening and closing SIP.
Application not remembering last opened list.
Saving a list sometimes doesn't actually save it. This is fixed.
I am trying to prevent where a list of items scrolls back to the top if you are scrolled down and click an item.
Downloads
The files are below. Shopping Cart Companion needs to be extracted. It requires .NET 3.5 framework on your computer.
Also, here is a link to all the .NET 3.5 compact framework installation files.
You specifically need to have:
NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
NETCFv35.Messages.XX.wm.cab (where XX indicates your phone's language)
It's looking good!
Quite similar to another program that's actively being developed right now.
Some comments:
If I click X in the upper right corner to go out of the program, it will do so without any chance of saving the file.
The font on the first page is really small on QVGA
I like the categories at the bottom. However, they are not finger friendly. It would be great if I could use the directional pad to move to the next category. Or even better, if they could be scrolled with your finger like the lists.
I like the fact that you can just click an item to check off, no need to be exact about clicking in the checkbox.
When adding selected items to new list, it seems as nothing happens. Shouldn't there be an option to name a new list?
Also, how do you go back to the main page, when you're in a list?
Since the lists layout/functions seems to be the same, couldn't there just be one list layout, and at top it would say whether it's the master list or a shopping list? So on the front page, there are 2 options: master and today.
I would prefer to add categories from the front page instead of where you add items.
Skip menu options that are not applicable to the current list , i.e. add items to new list, categories, master list etc. when you are shopping.
How do you delete a list?
Great with the Desktop companion! However, if there is nothing on the list, and you try to save as Master, it stops responding.
Also in the Master list on the Desktop, I don't see how to copy selected items to a today's shopping list.
I really like your settings and help option screens.

Hello,
Your program is very interesting, but I can not use just one problem you encounter, and it is important: only lets you open documents in the folder "my documents" in the main memory device. You should modify the program to allow open and save files in any folder on the device memory and the external memory card.
I have not tested whether extensions can also be associated with your program to automatically open when clicking those files from the file explorer program.
If I could use it widely, as I need, I would donate a sum of money for it, in that there is a problem.
Sincerely,

Hello,
True, I had not noticed having to click twice (or press "enter") to run this option to access all folders on the device.
What if I notice that you can not open large files, not size, but more than 100 KB can not be with them.
Nor could I see if you can associate text files "txt" to open this program directly from file explorer.
Sincerely,
Hello,
I've been testing the program further NotepadWS, which I consider a good application, but there are two problems with it:
I have seen two important issues that prevent me from replacing AgileNotesTouch, which is what I use now, for NotepadWS:
1 .- NotepadWS not allow it to associate with files by extension, to boot automatically with this application. For example, if you associate files "txt" with NotepadWS ... file does not start with "txt" open.
2 .- I do not know NotepadWS maximum size allowed, but a file of 100 KB or more does not open properly. AgileNotesTouch allows very large files sizes, without problems.
It is important that NotepadWS could solve these two problems.
Sincerely,

Hello Xdait,
Now he has been magnificent NotepadWS v2.5 program. Only one small detail I see in my device (VGA) and is the icon of your program in the file explorer leaves very large, so you see only a quarter of the icon ... only that detail.
I just made a donation through PayPal by using the program, as I indicated. I hope you get well.
Sincerely,
Looks interesting, just what i was looking for. Any chance for WQVGA in future?
Thank you a lot JCM!
2.5 -> 2.51
- Now app memorizes the folder of last file used for the next launch
- File shortcuts list added, to open registered files with just one click
QVGA version, probably i will do it, but don't know exactly about the time i need

@xdaid, appreciate the effort you've put in to this app so far. It has a lot of promise.
I've been playing with it off and on since the 2.0 release. It has not replaced me using AgileNotes (which has its own set of issues for me) on a regular basis, but I look forward to the possibility.
Here are my suggestions and please note I understand you have a life and your own set of requirements when you code, so I know maybe none of these comments might be used...
1. if you can support PWI files
2. if you can handle files with carriage return + linefeed end of line terminator (eg, DOS, windows based text files). Right now, files with CR+LF show up as unprintable characters
3. if you can allow for a default file folder on startup. Use the file shortcut UI you just implemented and apply it to select default, and/or favorite folders. I see you've just implemented it to memorize the last used folder, that is a good start and should be retained unless a default folder is specified.
4. allow for a default file type (eg, TEXT, LOG, etc). Currently always defaults to TEXT when you restart the app.
5. suggest adding or putting an EXIT APP type selection/option in your "cmd" CLOSE action list. Right now it has "X" to only close the active tab, but you have to go to the MAIN MENU to exit the app. Just does not seem intuitive in my opinion.
6. allow the user to select a default background color, font size, and font color if possible (to override system defaults). I realize this suggestion may be difficult or out of scope.
Future wish list, knowing it would likely require extra effort as you may not have the development environment to test on:
a. support the newer WM 6.5.x layout with the STARTMENU and "X" button on the bottom of the screen, or at least detect you are running on the newer versions and keep that bottom bar accessible.
b. use a better file selection UI. Right now, at least on my device, you have to tap on the actual scroll bar to scroll. It should be smooth and fluid like some of the default file selection interfaces in AgileNotes or even Resco File Explorer.
c. allow similar option like Resco or Total Commander for double or single tap to open a directory or file in your selection UI.
Again, thank you for the time and effort you have invested in to this application thus far.

@xdaid. Sweet! Did a quick test run, and seems you incorporated many of my suggestions. Nice work so far.
Only major concern right now is:
- allowing up/down scroll gestures in the file selection UI without actually having to tap directly on the scroll bars. Trying to do a scroll gesture typically selects the item your finger first lands on - basically seems the filename/directory listing of that UI reacts to single tap picking only.
Other than that, my left overs from my prior wish list post are still items:
(1) pwi support and (a) winmo 6.5.x UI support
Again those are not critical, just something for down the road - if even possible.
It's pretty close to being my daily editor and that's saying a lot. Keep up the great work.
Please re-download 2.55 cab installer
i forgot to include a small bug fix, now the cab is updated.
@ powinmo: scroll gesture in file selection UI should not be a problem, i will implement it soon.
Instead, pwi support could be quite hard to realize, i have some ideas about how
extract text from / save text to pwi files. Just ideas so far, but i can try..
regards
Thx for update works a treat

@xdaid - appreciate your continued work on the app! Looking forward to seeing that file selection UI more usable and closer to how others UIs act.
As for pwi support, I would put that priority at the very bottom and address any other items you feel are more important.
I do have one additional request after using your app a bit more now:
- add the ability to recognize a scroll up/down gesture versus highlighting text when editing. Right now, when you try to do that the editor strictly acts as if you want to mark text for an action (eg, copy, looking, etc). To scroll through a long document, you have to literally tap on the scroll bar versus the natural inclination of using a gesture.
Other than that, I'm almost sold on trying to the app as my regular editor. Thank you for being so receptive to user comments and suggestions!
For those who like to use the tab character to get fixed spaces / column alignment:
I added a 2.56 version, it's the same as 2.55 but tab character is enabled.

Hello Stefano,
I think your application becomes an application program is essential to our Windows Mobile devices. You've got an editor and text file reader very versatile and practical, ingenious solutions. Thanks for your good program.
Sincerely,
I've been looking for a nice notepad app for a while now, this looks pretty nice . Thanks for sharing!
I have a bit of a request: would you consider adding file 'scheme' functionality. Say you are looking a reg file, the 'scheme' would highlight certain predefined key words or phrases making it more readable. The same could then be true for .xml, .mscr or any other file that can be read by notepad. You think that would be doable?
uTask v1.4
Author: ultrashot
Compatibility: only Windows Mobile 6.5.3. Any resolution is supported, but I haven't checked this program on any resolution except WVGA.
Functions:
1) Reassignment of virtual keys such as "Windows" and "X"
Supported actions:
Standard action
Launch *.exe
Minimize current program
Close current program
Show start menu
2) Task Manager icon on "Today" screen.
You can assign any task manager to this button. Later I will make my own interface.
3) Position Fix for old windows.
Attention! Some applications can work in unexpected way with positionfix enabled. They should be added into exceptions list!
Exception list supports masks. For example, if you enter "SPBWEATHER*", all window classes starting with "SPBWEATHER" will be excluded.
Also there is a confurator inside.
The most evident difference from any existing programs is IMMEDIATE reaction to new windows. No timers and unneeded calculations at all. uTask is very battery-friendly because of that.
Available translations: russian, english, german, french, italian (thanks to translators!)
Changes in v1.4 (release: 29.06.11, compilation date: 17.06.11):
-added classes list
-minor changes
Changes in v1.4 (26-Mar-11):
-fixed HVGA display detection.
Changes in v1.4:
-better today button behaviour.
-auto-resize of incorrect button images.
-bugfixes (bug with few HTCMenus versions, bug with EzInput on some devices)
-installer now shows error message if you try to install uTask on unsupported OS. Then, if system refuses to run after utask installation, try to start your phone two or three times. Perhaps, autodiagnostic system will disable utask. But it doesn't mean you shouldn't make a system backup.
Changes in v1.3:
-more accurate vibration
-increased timeout for clock hook
-ability to *.lnk in configurator
-little changes.
Changes in v1.2:
-some fixes for position fix
-configtool fixes
-stability improvement
-auto detector of problematic apps - seems like exception list is useless at the moment.
-taskbar clock hook - clock will have the same as home key function
-implemented internal size\position cache... should work better for all, especially HVGA devices.
Changes in v1.1:
-added immediate position fix.
-fixed all found bugs.
-added special menu for toolbars (hold finger on old-style toolbars and you'll get an action menu).
-added "Open start menu" action.
-SIP position fix (works for Swype, for example)
-support for two softkeys HDMini-like mode.
-settings were moved to new subkey called "Settings" - attention, chiefs!
Make a system backup before installing! I don't take any responsibility for any damage to phone or data on it.
If you didn't read this label, or you aren't able to read at all, that's your problem
About adding this program to custom roms:
If you feel that everything works as expected - feel free to use it in your custom ROM. If not - post a comment about bugs.
Is there any difference to the xTask? Because you are using the xTask icon.

uTask is a totally different program without any junk and without battery-eating timers.
Looks a very interesting application.
I'm going to test it with HD2 Artemis v.42.
Thanks!
Tested with Artemis HD2 v42.0
It is working flawlessly with every soft key assignment!!!
The only bug I found is the icon of it, it is cutted in the right edge.
jolas, give me your theme and I'll fix it.
overall the app works. For whatever task mgr you use, make sure you put it into the exceptions list (otherwise arkswitch worked once, then errored).
I cannot get the windows long press or the home long press to do anything on my hd2. It doesn't error, it vibrates, but doesn't execute the .exe selected, tried a few of them.
edit: it works for some .exe's and not for others. Overall a very nice 1.0 program.
Here is the theme I use and the softkeys images too
Thanks!
jolas, please, attach all images for further testing.
I see softkeys have not standard size, that's why they are drawn incorrectly.

Two HD2 owners (Korand and AndrewSh) tested it, one with SE X2 (eugene38 from 4pda.ru) and me with SE X1. No issues with long presses. Are you sure you saved settings (silly question, but who knows)?

Here they are (because I didn't know which ones you needed, I put all inside zip).
thanks for your job
Problem solved
ultrashot, I figured out that the problem was originated by the button images I used in my theme (as you said, the size was incorrect).
I changed the size to the original's button size, and now everything is looking perfect!!!
Thank you for this great application!

Run uTask settings and untick 'Vibrate' option...
Like i say this is MUST HAVE for all 6.5.3 Users.. befor i don`t like 6.5.3 Only because not have a good taskmanager with one single click to kill the process and when you are in some app and press X the application do not close only minimaze and this was So so bad and ugly.. NOW all this problems gone with this amazing uTask
Thank you very very much ultrashot
