I've thought the same thing about figures drifting but IMO only way to be sure is that one has to test how it works in real life.

I'll fill the feature request this week after I've figured the feature better out in my head.

In the maemo packages page it was suggested that Fuelpad should have documentation. As Fulpad users from N800 times might have noticed, Fuelpad had built-in documentation.

In its wisdom, Nokia decided to remove the help system from Fremantle and therefore the Fremantle version does not include any documentation. I therefore converted the Diablo documentation to html and it is now available on-line both in English and in Finnish:

This documentation should be of use also with Fremantle version even though the user interface is a bit different.

Btw. still one thumb to go.

Thank You and other testers as well.

There's already a new package in devel, which fixes this bug.

JLU, Great app! I'm so glad you brought this to the N900, thank you!

Just a note, I was unable to import a text file with my current data, it crashed the app (maybe because i had a header row?)...

Suggestion: Would be nice to have a column for price/liter or price/gallon (which may not be the same as fill divided by price, given taxes/fees/etc.).

Suggestion: Would be nice to have time as well as date... I know, probably too much detail.

Suggestion: add more service columns/fields, or even better, let the user customize columns, or even even better, download custom schedules for their automobile.

Suggestion: tie into GPS, let N900 take a GPS marker of the location of the fill-up and service as part of the entry, could even probably find the data online about the gas station.

Suggestion: Bit of a stretch, but how about tying into camera, let user take a picture of gas pump (petrol pump i mean!) and detect/extract the amount of petrol pumped, price/liter, total cost, etc...

Looks great, thanks again!

Thanks, great suggestions!

About importing your text file: If you like, you can send me the file that crashed Fuelpad and I'll try to find out the reason. Send me a PM or if you can find my e-mail, mail the file directly.

I didn't quite understand your idea on a column for price/liter or price/gallon since Fuelpad already has such a column. Do you mean a column that you fill instead of Fuelpad calculating it?

I did mean a user-editable field, though thinking about this suggestion, adding this feature may be more trouble than its worth. At some of the places I fill up at, they charge an extra amount on top of the price/liter (such as a credit card processing fee).

Thanks again!

I have thought about syncing myself, too, but haven't really had any thoughts on how to implement it.

If you like, you could submit this as a feature request in Fuelpad's garage page. The address to feature requests is https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/?at...54&func=browse. TMO is good for informal discussion but even good feature requests are easily forgotten here. I have my own needs which drive the development mostly but I have implemented many suggestions made by the users. One good example implemented from a feature request is the reminder system, which I don't use myself at all.

!
Even in that case (extra fee on top) I would calculate the fee as part of the fuel price and use the total price to calculate the price/amount of fuel.

Hi jlu,

Thanks for this nice App. I will definitely use it.
I'm a user of the 'www.spritmonitor.de' site, and I used to take note of every fueling in my old N95 notes, to then sync it to the site. I'm now using your app in my N900.

Nice that you used SQL lite. I'm a bit off of hobby time atm, but I will write some tool to fetch the data from spritmonitor.de and import it into Fuelpad and maybe also the reverse.

Btw: I think that when editing the car, it should read "Brand" and not "Mark".
