anyway i was just wondering if with vertsms we can send blank sms

I quess you can send one space char as a message, but if the textfield is fully blank, the app will nag and refuse to send anything.

@ossipena: you could change
string != ""
to
if not string
or
if string is not None

question is would that break octify and semi octify?

I'll probably just add another confirmation dialog, something like

"you haven't typed message, send anyway?"

if someone feels the app should be able to send blank messages.

some progress: adding multiple recipients and API way to put sent messages to conversations database is working. so next released version should be able to handle those.

and while I try to fix the not being able to send to 07xxx -numbers -bug, I discovered data location for flash message so if I get things working, it should become as an option to VertSMS too.

e: and same with delivery report...

Thanks for the update Ossi It's getting better all the time!! I have just realised though, that I still cant really use this app as there is no way to type + when entering a contact so cannot even manually enter numbers :(. Gonna open a bugzilla for this now.

very good point about the + -character!

and bugreport is good way to make sure I am not forgetting to fix something: I can see the buglist whenever I want and check what is still wrong.

I am doing some text input improvements, and will add ability to input plus sign (but please create the bugreport just in case my memory betrays me!)

Just created it now. This issue is a shame because I was going to try your suggestion in the devel about getting the the latest push from gitorious, but as I am not going to be able to add + there is not a lot of point. :(

If you edit line 264 in vertsms_gui.py you can use + or - signs...

One of these days I'll started hacking on vertsms again...just been so busy/tired as of late.

I can give you a quick fix if you know how to edit the py -file.

so you need to edit vertsms_gui.py

http://gitorious.org/vertsms/vertsms...vertsms_gui.py

change row 264
from
Code:

  '*': ';',
to
Code:

  '*': '+',

2 tips: make the send button half as big and make another button that acts as a arrow right. wich will be used to fast forward when you wanna type 2 of the same characters fast after eachother (now you have to wait a sec)

and second, it would be awsome if the vertsms was executed when in conversations > new sms the n900 is flipped vertically.

And offcourse T9 would be very awsome
