== Status ==

This is early-alpha software. Consider yourself lucky if it works at all. Many people have put many hours of hard work in to get just this far - respect that effort when making comments and suggestions.

== License ==

Please be aware that org.webosinternals.terminal and x-webosinternals-termplugin are licensed under the GPLv2.

They cannot be used by a closed source application. If you want to use them in a non-GPLv2 but otherwise open source application, please contact the authors.

=== Operating notes ===

To enable full screen apps, type '''export TERM=vt100''' and press enter. This will be included in a later release. Note that the case of that command is important. Note also that if you try to run something like vi without it, you will get a screen full of gibberish.

To send an esc type orange-space. To send a tab use SYM-I -- tab is just a control-i the sym key is the control key. There is not yet a keymap for |.

Rotating the pre will take the terminal to landscape mode. The keyboard will not rotate with you. Attempting to rotate the keyboard to landscape mode is known to bork a Pre.

To scroll the screen, flick the screen. (Hint, it's a Pre app.)

=== Known bugs ===

The , (comma) key does not work. orange-command is _ underscore - also broken as is typing the @ sign.

Remember, this is early alpha software. You're lucky it works at all.

I can't get the u key to work it replace it with a y. I have only tried on emulator.

== Installation ==

Do not stray from or vary these instructions. If you don't do it all, in precisely the right order, with zero mistakes, it's not going to work. Copy & Paste will be your friend.

'''You need to be logged in as root with a writeable filesystem.''' Instructions for both those things can be found elsewhere on this wiki.

== Other PreWare Applications ==

Note that you can use the same commands to install other applications from PreWare:

<source lang="text">
/usr/bin/ipkg -o /var update
/usr/bin/ipkg -o /var list
/usr/bin/ipkg -o /var install <package> # choose a package from the list
/usr/bin/ipkg -o /var remove <package>
</source>

== Removal ==

You need to be logged in as root with a writeable filesystem. Instructions for both those things can be found elsewhere on this wiki.

<source lang="text">
rm /usr/lib/BrowserPlugins/termplugin.so
/usr/bin/ipkg -o /var remove org.webosinternals.terminal
/usr/bin/ipkg -o /var remove x-webosinternals-termplugin
rm /var/etc/ipkg/preware.conf
</source>

Then refresh the GUI to remove the icon:

<source lang="text">
luna-send -n 1 palm://com.palm.applicationManager/rescan {}
