#!/bin/sh
(cd /usr/share/applications/hildon && rm -rf Flobby.desktop)

can this script delete "Flobby.desktop" file? Or it delete all .desktop files located in hildon folder?

I want to delete only one.

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

it deletes Flobby.desktop. Should this be itslf a directory, all the files it contains are also deleted. To be on safe side, delete only if Flobby.desktop is a file, write: .... rm -f Flobby.desktop

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

you mean it should look like this......

#!/bin/sh
(cd /usr/share/applications/hildon && rm -f Flobby.desktop)

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

yes; note that -f does not mean file; it means force. -r means recursive.

Firstly apologies, I am reading thorugh the thread (when I have time) and have tried google but am unsure of the answer.

My question is my network operator is 3 in the UK therefore I don't have a 2g connection. Can the email functionality send via 3G rather than try and connect to gprs?

Thanks in advance

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

That should be no problem. smscon does not handle 2G and 3G connections differently. It you have internet connection et all it's no matter whether it is 3G or 2G. Some telecom networks support both and the phone is even switching between both types every now and then without affecting smscon operation.

The SMSCON Editor is missing two votes to become unlocked and allow us to promote both applications from Extra-Testing to Extras.

Those who have tested and found it fulfills the QA checklist please vote here:

Thank you.

Edit: we got the votes, thank you again.

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

Just updated from Extras.
SMSCON 0.9.16-1 and Editor SMSCON 0.9.12-1.
Thank you for all the work put into it.

I couple of things I noticed.

Is there a way to edit the alarm.wav file using the GUI?

How long does the alarm continue for?
I can't see a COM_ALARMOFF or can you COM_RESTART to stop it.

Also is it possible to make the GUI use the devices system font?

----

A lot has changed since 0.7 and it's all good.
The GUI is an huge improvement and well laid out.
The explanation adjacent each option helps a lot.
Thanks again.

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

Currently not. But it is a good idea. E.g. having some kind of function in the GUI that offers to select a sound file stored somewhere else on the phone and that will tell smscom to "import" that sound as alarm.wav file. Just an idea.

Alarm duration depends on alarm.wav content. There is no command to abort playing (even COM_RESTART doesn't). I recommend to keep the alarm file reasonably short timed.

Probably Saturn has an answer to that question.

Re: [Announce] SMScon (control your device with SMS)
 

Exactly what I was thinking.

Would it be a good idea to put a default alarm sound into SMSCON?
