?
I have an icon.
Although it was awfull, I made it a bit better with the help of gimp.
(probably you need to uninstall and reinstall as I don't want to make it a new version)
Do you have it in the menu after a reboot?

I tried the hildonised version and the non hildonised version.

IMHO the non hildonised version is much more better. I find the top bar easier and it seems to work with running from command line with file as argument (The hildon version gives out some weird error) and the default gtk file browser is more powerful than the hildon one.

Both versions (not installed at the same time) appear in menu after reboot.

Ok, I admit I didn't even try the new version..

Yes that's true that's annoying

I think the same. I used it 10mn ago and had the same thought. All my documents are in /home/user/docz and the filemanager widget can't access it.. BUt you know, it's a user-oriented thing, not a geek-oriented thing

Both versions (not installed at the same time) appear in menu after reboot.
But I guess the new version doesn't handle the keyboard? Or it's just hw keys missing and full screen?

Gonna have a look..

Version 0.8.10-1 available, update your application list.

Hardware keys:
  • - / + : Change font size
  • Fullscreen with middle button
  • Curved arrow is arbitrary mapped to "Find next"

Cheers

Just did a quick update and it looks pretty good to me. Certainly usable

Little nits:

I am using a BT keyboard and the keyboard mappings probably need some attention.

The green leafpad icon in the 'Extras' list is pretty fuzzy, and the icon is not used in the running programs list on the lhs of the screen.

When you save something it is difficult to enter an all lower-case filename using a keyboard. The first character defaults to UC and has to be typed and then deleted to get a lc character. Is this is a Hildon/GTK issue rather than Leafpad?

Yes the icon was made bigger because I had no internet when I updated this (I'll try to find one of this size on inet if it exists) and then enhanced it with a bit of gimp magic. I don't find it that fuzzy, much less than before.
For the lhs I'll have to look how to do this

Yes, that's a Hildon/GTK global setting.
Configuration panel->Text input->Case modifiying (fuzzy translation to english, don't know the exact names)

Thanks for feedback

I've been using pygtkeditor instead of leafpad and I think I'll stick with it, especially for on device python development as it offers a full toolbar, source code highlighting and the ability to launch the current program from inside the editor.

Good for you.

Some people (including me) have been begging for a working port of leafpad.

Thx for the update.

It seems that the double icons problem in the apps menu has been solved too.

About the lhs icon (mentioned by Dont), if I'm not wrong, it was appearing in the unhildonised version and for sure in the 2007 one. Maybe it helps.

Thanks Saturn.
Yes I know that it existed. Unfortunately a lot of little things changed from 2007-2008. Will look into this.
Also I have to find how to launch leafpad from the filemanager. It was not working in my last tests.
