and if you dont want to use vi to clean your files you and also use one liners like:

# sed -i -e 's/^M//g' /usr/bin/USbS.sh

cheers
Wow, that was such an insightful read. "Waiting for something to happen in a busyloop (regardless of the inserted sleeps) or with a timer consumes a lot of power. Instead of polling, ensure that the application waits for events." I suspect USbS would be a battery hog at smaller time intervals as the device will continously be woken up.

But, I wont be able to use system heartbeat from a shell script right? So I am now learning to write and compile a small C++ program that invokes the shell script when woken up. It may take time as I am a newb.

Saturn, do you mind if I PM you questions to which google can't help me?

Noted and thanks.

REALLY? I had made sure to use Unix EOL and opening the script in my device with vi does not show any such thing. Hmm is everyone getting this? Maybe something happened while zipping?
Is it present in all files or just /usr/bin/USbS.sh?


Also guys, please let me know how USbS is affecting your battery life.

looks like your source has been commercialized : http://store.ovi.com/content/279408

its frustrating when someone takes open-sourced work and commercializes it without giving due credit to the original devs.

thp can ofcourse release what ever commercial application which functionality can be similar like than this. Have you checked if he uses the same sources (quite unlikely)? But even if he would thats life, anyone can ask money from open sourced application, and some people do pay if app is nicely packaged, so you don't have to fire up text editor to get things working.
