How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?

LOL! What a cute guy. Happy New Year!

What the hell does that mean? If you don't know - don't answer.

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

Ummm... you don't? ".com" isn't a letter. You can, however, add a shortcut for handwriting. See http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=20997

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

I know in Windows you can run a script to capture a key (say the eruo sign), and print .com. I am sure you can do the same on Linux...

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

I think the OP means like pressing Ctrl + Enter in Windows........? At least thats how its done in windows.

For example, type "ebay" into internet explorer and hold down the Ctrl key while hitting return/enter and "ebay" is automatically changed to "http://www.ebay.com/"

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

Last time I checked, if you entered just 'ebay' into the MicroB web browser, it just automatically tacks on www in front and .com at the end and goes to http://www.ebay.com.

I'm not sure why you would want .com in the keyboard screen but the need for a .com button or a .com macro sounds more like a function of application, than keyboard app.

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

In the handwriting recognition it is easy to add shortcuts.

I use a long right-hand loop to do "www."
and I use a plus sign with the left spoke connected to the bottom spoke to mean ".com".

I am not aware of any way to put a shortcut on the emulated keyboard screen though.

There are a number of "spare" spots where you could conceivably put them on the symbols portion of the emulated keyboard (2-symbols tab, 5-Accents a-m tab, 10-Accents n-z tab).

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

I can add to the Symbols portion of the keyboard?

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

iTab, why do you need .com? As danramos says above, the browser automatically adds www and .com to a name.

And I'm pretty sure the keyboard is closed source, so you would need some really good hacking skillz to modify it, and .com is not a letter, so I don't know how you are going to add it. If you want to do the weird macro way I suggested, I'm pretty sure that is your only option. Aka when the £ key is presses, it types .com

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

He said that's how you add ".com" in Internet Explorer or Mozilla - which I knew already. How can I do it on my iTab?

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

I'm pretty sure I said MicroB web browser (which is the browser that comes with the Nokia Internet Tablets). :)

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

It's not all that easy. MicroB seems to do some smart guessing. Right now I entered "ABBA" and it took me to the wikipedia-article about the swedish band rather than to www.abba.com (although this website exists). I don't know what MicroB does, but it always takes me to a reasonable site whenever I type in just a word. Probably it's Google's "I'm feeling lucky".

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

Are you putting that into the address bar? (Not in the google search bar in the default screen.) I haven't tried this (and can't try it right now) but it seems odd that it'd act like a google LUCKY search, the way you're describing it.

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

If I am hitting "CTRL + ENTER" - then I may as well just type out ".com"...

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

Yes, because typing in ".com" is the most time consuming part of my day...

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

...and .org! Don't forget .org!

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

I have this using ukeyboard from Jiri Benc. See

http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=24006

The small keyboards also have .com in it.

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

Not to mention all the non-us TLDs (and even 2LDs), .co.uk and such. You could fill up the whole keyboard with them.

Re: How Do I Add ".com" To My Keyboard Layout?
 

yes, i just type it in the address bar. i thought that's what it's for ;)

for example, to go to the time table of the austrian federal railway, i type "öbb fahrplan" - and i'm there.

Sorry, no. hildon-input-method was one of the things Nokia openned up quite a while ago.
