Okay, I just finished my first customized, sidebar keyboard.

Even though the start up isn't at all what one would consider to be friendly, I thought to post here anyway and perhaps receive some feedback.

Pros:
Nice, neutral size appearance
Doesn't overlap the minimized window

Cons:
Can only exit from keyboard, there's no way to minimize and then resize it again
Less keys supported
Not that great if you're right handed -It's perfect if you're one of those ignorant, left handed folks


So here's how I use it on my Nokia

Start up Dosbox from toolbar
Exit the default keyboard to remove it from the screen (you won't be needing it anymore)
Open up X-Term from toolbar
Maximize the window so X-Term is in full-screen mode.
At the prompt type

xkbd -geometry -1-1 -k /media/mmc2/x.xkbd
(The negative coordinates is not a typo)

Finally, resize X-term and then minimize it so that Dosbox shows back up.



Yikes. That's quite a load to get it going, but I thought I would at least make mention on how I've been using this and to see what you guys think about it.



Here's a screenshot:



The file is attached at the end of this post. Notice that in the X-Term command above, the x.xkbd file was copied into the internal memory card (mmc2).



Just a few questions to end this post.
ArnimS, can you think of a reason why ADOM 1.1.1 for DOS won't run under Dosbox?
Download site is here:

Also, will your T.O.M.E. port work with a minimized screen?
I would love to check it out, but I'm nervous about copying all those files to the internal memory and not knowing if it will work without it being in full screen mode.

Finally, did you ever hear back from Dawnmist?

Okay guys. I'm off to get a little bubbly with a 12 pack of Bud.
I'll check back later this weekend to see if there's any feedback.

Cheers.
