Well, I got the * and # keys functional, and the 0 key now understands carriage returns, but there are a couple of issues:
1. I haven't figured out a good way to interpret shift.
2. The font set on the N900 apparently doesn't have extensive unicode support, so I was unable to use decent characters for space, carriage return, or shift. The alternative would be to have custom icons. If not obvious by now, I'm not an artist, so that won't be coming from me.
Now its time to pull in ossi's changes to see what progress he made and start working on a settings menu and play with navigation buttons as well as padding.

Please let those arrows be where they are. It's not once or twice that while texting, you realize that you have made some spelling mistake two three words behind. Going back to that point using the touch screen directly is quite a difficult task by just touching with the finger. And if you need to take out the stylus to point at the exact position where the mistake is, it beats the whole point of having the "one handed SMS sending application"
And one more request if I may
Let's hope that you have the carriage return under the "0" button (I think that the sequence was something like "0 > space > CR"). Many times, I send shopping list by SMS. Having the items on separate lines, improves the readability to a whole new level

@ossipena
Got this packaged (mostly for an easier installation), .desktop file with a flipped conversation icon added.
Can push into -devel if you want. If you prefer to upload it yourself then be it
if there is no 1 person uploading per package limitation (i have no idea about repos, etc...) then you could upload it. but please not current but newer version.
and good point with padding, will add at least some to the updated version today

Don't know if it's possible, but you may want to collaborate with epage for Google Voice texting capability.

Packages can be uploaded by anyone, and the maintainer would be overwritten depending on who uploaded the last package.
In short, yes, you and any other person can upload a later version without any requests.

Change x_padding and y_padding accordingly.
There isn't much error checking(yet)oj becuase I just through this together real quick, so config will have to be made before running.
When I have more time, I'll add a system config file with sane defaults, and then eventually write a gui for these and any future options to come.
The screenshots show 0 padding, 5 padding, and just to demonstrate the flexibility, 10 for x and 0 for y:

Perhaps bugs would be easier to track down if this whole thing were implemented as a class? That is, one for each major component, then we could just piece everything together. When I have time --probably this weekend or so, I'll see if I can't refactor the code in my branch to give you an idea of what I'm talking about/see if it's a practical idea.
In otherwords, I guess I'm saying the way we're doing things now seems more procedural than object-oriented.
At any rate, thanks for starting this thing man, I'm having fun.
